My bank in the US has unsuccessfully tried to wire money to my bank account in Luxembourg. I have given them the Swift number, IBAN, and name of the receiving bank. Is there anything else that they need? What could be going wrong in the transfer process?
Your bank in Luxembourg undoubtedly receives foreign wire transfers regularly. Has that bank given you explicit instructions that you have passed along verbatim?
If so, ask your U.S. bank to put a trace on the wire. That should tell them where the funds are.
