What is the difference between using telemoney and a regular international bank transfer? Which one offers a better exchange rate?

What are the pros and cons of using each to send money back to your home country?

Sorry I've edit the post I was wrong

Teleymony is taking 35 SR on every transaction
And the limit is 25000 SR
Banks is deducting higher rate in general i think but it depends some banks are offering less rate with bigger amount of money

Fees depend on your bank on each end. I have heard various answers before.

I only pay 40 sr per bank transfer from my bank here and have no fees from my receiving bank. Insanely cheaper for me to use my banks compared to Telemoney
