Transfer wise now wise.com doing scam. When you want to send money, it will show a good amount but when you pay the $, the recipient will get less amount.
I want to send $2K and first it show the recipient will get 268K BDT if I pay via debt card, when I pay $2K, now it show the recipient will get 263K BDT, 6K BDT less ( $75) they will not show you the final price before you paid the money.

When did you transfer the funds? Can't it be that the currency conversion rates changed since then?

Apart from this they can only show you the fees they charge, what's not common knowledge is that the bank of the recipient can charge money too considering it's an international money transfer (involving currency exchange).

There needs to be a sensible explanation to the difference in the amounts.

I'm not familiar with their refund terms, but you sent USD and from the looks of it you'll get your whole $2k back.

Wise is not a scam, with international transaction you get money less or more depending on conversion rate.

They are the most honest company I know.
With the lowest fees, and all fees changes updates were
introduced at least a month before.

They are not scam, I use them everyday to pay my freelancers but my question is they don't show the final amount before I pay the amount. Always my $ I pay will more than what they show first or the recipient money will less than what they show first.
