OREANDA-NEWS. August 10, 2012. The network of partners of Sviaz-Bank’s BLIZKO money transfer system now has yet another lending institution, Tveruniversalbank OJSC, which has started providing its customers with money transfer services as part of the BLIZKO system. Tveruniversalbank is the system’s exclusive partner in Tver city and region, reported the press-centre of Sviaz-Bank.

Currently, money transfer services are available at the head office of Tveruniversalbank OJSC in Tver, and will shortly be offered at the bank’s remaining offices in other Russian regions, including Tver Region, and the cities of Chelyabinsk, Moscow, and St.Petersburg.

The new service will give Tveruniversalbank’s customers an opportunity to make instant money transfers in rubles, U.S. dollars, and euro in Russia, CIS countries, and elsewhere without the requirement to open an account and give the address at destination – the money transferred may be collected at any BLIZKO point in the destination country.

The commission charged for the service ranges between 1.3% and 2%, depending on the amount transferred.
