anybody change money in the last couple of days? What sort of exchange rate did you manage to get, and where?
I know it is absolutely awful at the moment, just wondering where is the best place. Cheers |

Ive been looking too as im away next week. Checking out the moneysupermarche website is best. The best deals are in places in central london. Failing that M&S works out about £30 worse than the best when changing up £400. Also take cash to change dont use any cards as it seems you get stung for a few extra % if you do. Hope this helps.
Just wish I changed mine before christmas when I first thought of it. Pretty much pound for euro at the mo! |

Get yourself registered for a fairfx.com card..... reasons why:
* excellent exchange rate... better than any banks/high street etc...
* Doesnt charge you for paying over the counter, no matter what currency its it
* Dont pay sh1t ryanair payment fees - the only option for free payment (Mastercard Prepaid Card)
If you do wanna take cash out the bankomat, its only €1.50 for up to €1000 withdrawal...
I could go on and on about just how good this card is when travelling regularly..... |

I changed money in the post office the other day, 195 euro for £184.
Probably should have looked into it more, come to think of it! |

| Just got back from Austria and it's working out at 1.08euro's to the £ so if you work it out as 1:1 you wont be far out. Paid 3.60euro's for a beer and 5.60euros for a coke!!!! So save money by drinking beer. |
