Hi Guy,

Trust you are fine.

I have transfer some funds to my boyfriend in Algeria through  bank transfer.

I would like to know how much time does it takes for this funds to be credited into his account.

I inquire with my bank, it said 5-10 working days but he still did not receive it.

And he inquires with his bank, and it said a month.

Can someone clarify me on that please

Thank you

Warm Regards
Nadia

then he should have a bank account and that bank account should be open with euro

if he open the bank account with Algerian dinar  the money will automatically  converted into dinar i think

tell your boyfriend to  open a  euro bank account  so that he can receive in euro and the bank transfer usually take about for me 6 days  .

Money transfer is still and issue in Algeria. It may take more than a month to get the money recieved via and IBAN acc. No otherwise, if the money is transfered to a normal acc. No then will be converted automatically to Dinar and then delivered to the client.
