Just your regular reminder that #WellsFargo is a garbage institution. Our one-branch credit union doesn't have a SWIFT number and my daughter needed one to receive the funds from her (UK) educational savings account, so she opened a Wells account. Dealing with them has been incredibly frustrating, and the manager of her branch just refused to produce a letter with her account info and wire instructions for the UK bank and slammed the phone down on me.
