Send money home with low cost

If you want to send money to your family or someone in countries like Vietnam, China, or Mexico, Express Send provided by Wells Fargo might be a good choice for you. I have used this service many times and totally satisfied. The fee is quite small, just 4$ for a $3000 transaction comparing to 3% fee of common balance transfer services. To have that fee, you need to sign up for its Complete or Premium Checking Package. The package is useful; it provides you free debit cards, free check books, and free online management.

Wells Fargo is a great bank. Its business seems to be a bit conservative (e.g. it is rather hard for me to sign up for a Credit Card there). However, a conservative bank brings more confidence. Many banks are dying and being down recently, while Wells Fargo is still living well.
