Apparently this quite common in Europe and is safe to use your own checking account numbers as this is a "bank to bank" transaction.

Cool.
Like I said. We do it quite often.
I always have the bank set up the receiving account.
I just don’t want to tell some guy I don’t know: “Here’s my account number…” and give him one of my active accounts.
(not like everyone can’t see your checks though)
We do it with pretty large transfers to “other than checking” accounts, too.
I don’t want someone having any info that they could possibly build on with at a later date via a simple phone call or two. Some ID thieves are pretty good, ya know?!
Maybe just take $100 and open a savings account at your bank if they wont do it for you. Receive the wire. Transfer the funds in house. And then close the account. We’ve gone that route as well. (because BofA sucks)
