When sending money to Bulgaria you will be charged by both your bank and the Bulgarian bank. The bank charges must be covered by you for both sides. If you use Global Currency Exchange, you don't pay any bank charges in the UK, but you still need to cover the bank fees which the Bulgarian bank will charge you.
