Thanks

you have western union all over the place. and other similar services.

Try using some bank because Western Union is expensive. Bank charges are very nominal and money will go directly in their account in UK.
You can try "Tahweel AlRajahi" or "Samba SpeedCash"

Thank you both for your help.

Just note that you need an Iqama to transfer any money from here.
