Hi Al,

My money was sent from Banco do Brasil (who are probably the worst bank in Brazil) to Barclays in the UK, it took over a week but it got there in the end. You really need to engage a lawyer though as it would have taken me a lot longer without one and the major effort in getting the transfer through is making sure the paperwork is in order.

You could also ask Moneycorp as they are now doing transfers to Brazil (I used it myself for 40k€ last month and it works well, funds were properly registered, etc.) so they may now have the return route setup.

Regards,
Rob.
