Always feel lucky here in Australia you can transfer anyone money via bank transfer for free..

Within Australia. You probably can't do international transfers for free. The same local transfers system exists here in the Nordics too :)

Italy too, and Italy's banks are not exactly on the forefront of world banking any more. In the US, it's not so easy, at least that's my recollection.
