Sheridan Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Ok, so theres plenty of these to chose from such as airserver,reflector,xmirage etc and they all work fine. However they all US based and require credit card payment in USD$ (even if they price in £ they invoice in $) This causes an issue with our finance dept, so we need a UK based reseller of something like this who will accept a PO and invoice in good old GBP - anyone got any recommendations? Its a shame as both airserver and reflector work really well, but other than using personal credit cards (ain't gonna happen!) I'm a bit stuck.
NB9457 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 We bought Airserver through @Edsure and paid in £s +1 Cheap, easy and works great 1
adamholt1 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Yes - one for Airserver here. Can't you use a school credit card to purchase it?
Sheridan Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 Credit card purchase is ok - its something to do with the fact the invoice is always going to be in USD$ - no matter what the card payment is made in!
tmoon-mint Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Another one for AirServer, all prices showing in £ here and definitely paid in £. Edited June 17, 2015 by tmoon-mint Formatting error
Sheridan Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 From Airserver: Please note, we do accept payment in other currencies, but our system can only invoice in US Dollars This is the problem - the amount will show in USD on your statement.
localzuk Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 It sounds like your finance dept is being officious and difficult. We bought on credit card here, USD only, and our finance officer was fine with it. They just use the figures from the credit card statement to put the final price on the finance system. Never been an issue, even when we were an LEA school! Can you find out what the issue is they have?
mikeprice Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 I think AB Tutor can do this now - UK based so not $$$ problems
Bev Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 We use reflector, bought using the school credit card which does the conversion for you. 1
Sheridan Posted June 19, 2015 Author Posted June 19, 2015 Cheers all - it actually seems to have been a complete lack of understanding between departments! Airserver now ordered and installed, and working nicely!
