There are 12 main ways by which you may send your payment to the College: by Bank Transfer by On-line Banking by Western Union Quick Pay by MoneyGram by Bank Draft or Bank Cheque by Western Union Will Call by Currency Notes by Credit card or Debit card by PayPal by Dahabshiil Money Transfer by British Postal Orders by Cheque By BANK TRANSFER These 12 methods are explained below. You can arrange to make a transfer or payment straight in to one of the College s Bank Accounts. If you (or a friend, or a family member, or your company) have a bank account, you can ask the bank to transfer a payment to the College. Most banks will allow you to send a payment by bank transfer even if you do not have an account in British Pounds, US Dollars, or Euros. Or, you can go into a bank with some money (such as cash) and ask the bank to send that amount to a College bank account. Most banks will accept money in your local currency or British Pounds, US Dollars, or Euros; the bank will ensure the College receives British Pounds, US Dollars, or Euros. To transfer money to one of the College s accounts, your bank needs the details below (which you might need to write in a bank transfer form): Bank Account Name: Services to Management (for Cambridge International College) Bank name: HSBC Bank plc Bank address:- road: King Street; City & Region: St. Helier, Jersey; Post Code: JE4 8NJ; Britain for transfers in British Pounds ( ) send to: Account Number: 32144670 Sort Code: 402534, SWIFT/BIC Code: MIDLGB22, IBAN: GB35 MIDL 4025 3432 1446 70 for transfers in US Dollars (US$) send to: Account Number: 68294583 Sort Code: 400515, Swift/BIC Code: MIDLGB22, IBAN: GB59 MIDL 4005 1568 2945 83 for transfers in Euros ( ) send to: Account Number: 68343364 Sort Code: 400515, Swift/BIC Code: MIDLGB22, IBAN: GB38 MIDL 4005 1568 3433 64 Then post, or scan and email, or fax, your details with the bank receipt to the College in Britain. We can credit you only with the sum the College actually receives, so ensure you also pay any bank charges, and add 15 or US$30 or 20 to the Fee amount for incidental charges. Note, to overcome possible problems of changes in exchange rates between your local currency and British Pounds or US Dollars, you can use the Western Union Global Pay for Students service - for details see the How Can I Make a Fee Payment section of the CIC website. By ON-LINE BANKING If you (or a friend, or a family member, or your company) have a bank account which offers on-line banking, you can make a transfer or payment straight to one of the College s bank accounts.
