I am a language student about to spend my year abroad in Cuba. I need to be able to access money and want to know the best way for my parents to send me money from England. Are there any recommended methods???? I have a Barclays bank account in the UK, however I am aware that using cashpoints etc can be very very expensive. Are there any better methods? I will be there for 10 months.

You can get money sent to you by wireless transfer. This will be to a nominated bank in cuba where you can collect the money from. There are certain % charges on these transactions though. Either that or just take travellers cheques out with you or cash to convert to cuc, cuban convertible pesos.

Cuba is really dificult to send money too, and restricted to cash machines to some MAIN banks only!! you would be better of going to your local travel agents and they should be able to tell you the best methods,, Western Union are the obvious for cash transfers but not sure that available in Cuba this is available..

Canada has no travel restriction on Cuba as the USA does. Just wire the money to the Bank Of Cuba. Really, this shouldn't even be an issue!

Western Union money transfer. Might be even more expensive than using cashpoints though.

Get a bank reference before you go, and take it with you. Open an account there and get your parents to send money to the Cuban account.
