    banking gurus help!

    Can anyone explain this behavior from 2CO.com for wire transfers ?

    US Dollar Wire to country with unsupported currency : $ 12.00 USD
    US Dollar Wire to country with supported currency : $ 20.00 USD

    Why would it cost more to wire money to a country with supported currency than to one WITHOUT a support currency ? Makes no sense to me!

    Not entirely sure, but it might have something to do with fee allocation, the recipient bank being liable for a portion of the transfer fee if the currency is unsupported.
