Exchange Rates

After comparing exchange rates I find the best place to change money
is Sainsburys who offer a better rate if you use a nectar card
 
1.15 at ICE Waterloo station today, going up slightly.
 
Even better, the euro visa rate, the rate they use to work out cash withdrawals is even higher, great news. :)


Currencies fluctuate every day. The rate shown applies to transactions processed by Visa Europe on 13 December 2011 with a currency conversion fee of 0.00%.

1 British Pound = 1.177010 Euro
 
changed cash today for 1.17 to the £ in a local pawn shop, our bank RBS were only offering 1.13, dont tell her indoors i went to the pawn though :D miserable as sin i am :p

I thought for an 'orrible moment you were saying you'd pawned 'er indoors!:eek: Time I went to bed
 
Spot rate this morning is 1.1824 !!
 
Wahoo...lets hope it hits 1.20 over Christmas and the new year for everyone going away :)
 
Tesco credit card offers a great rate, delivers cash to your door in a two hour specified time slot, free of charge over £500, no interest to pay if you clear the debt on your next statement date and you get Clubcard points - beat that.
 
Yes ICE Waterloo station 1.21. Fill yer boots folks it wont last long & its not likely to go up much more.
 
Smart currencies (who I use for my import euro payments) forcast that the £ will get to 1.25 buy the middle of the year and around 1.28 by the end of the year - but things can go down as well as up;)
 
This will make such a big difference for those of us who self cater and can only be good for restaurant owners in PP. We will most definately eat out more and less of our dosh will go to Eroski and Lidl!
Our spending money budget hasn't changed for a few years now and we have found we have had to eat in more often than not since the pound fell back in 2008.
 
Just had a fair deal from Tesco on line. £500.+ paid e1.17 no commission, delivered 24hrs.
 
called our bank rbs today and offered 1.14, got 1.18 in a pawn shop in glasgow today, dont tell mrs gers i was in a pawn shop though :D
 
The visa exchange rate that cash machine withdrawals are worked out on was 1.20 yesterday, still not too bad and much better than it was at the end of last year!
 
Correct me if I am wrong but Visa will charge you on your bill for that transaction?.
 
Depends on where you card is from I think, M&S were offering 1.14 today which isn' t so good
