1.1034 on TravelFX if you buy more than £700 worth. The market has already factored in Brexit with an exit deal. No deal Brexit is another matter.Quote:

Pound buys less cash at tourist rates cf business rate. Significantly less over the counter at places such as Post Office and never buy at an airport.Quote:

Looking to buy 5 K worth for our euro trips this summer, not sure i will bother as i have a revoult card and Starling card which are pre loaded and you get the business / interbank rate of exchange, also use Halifax Clarity credit card which has 0 fee's
Of course its nice to have some notes, but everywhere takes cards now
Just looked at the Starling card details. I might go for one at some stage but have no immediate need. If you stick to main tourist areas most places will take cards but in my case I tend to end up in the back of beyond where it's cash only.Quote:
