Post Office.. might not look as good as far as the exchange rate goes compared to some travel agents etc.. but usually works out better because they don't charge a commission.

Not sure what Bank your with but most offer good exchange rates and if you have an account its almost always commision free.

I'm with Barclays and you have to order them

I did explain that this is the 21st century and quite a few people use Euros these days so perhaps they could keep a couple of grand's worth in the drawer. No chance.

Haven't looked lately, but Marks and Sparks are usually pretty good .

Might have got dollars though the last time I used them

Im with barclays, they are the worst bank going by my experiences and the comments of some past employees

Cash point machine in the country you are going to.

Theyre all about the same anyway, better deal pay more commission, no commission less of a deal.

Unless its huge amounts I dont see the point in saving yourself
£10 from half hours scouting about. Its just not worth it. Pay that £10 and save your half hour, its a pint or 2 in the local that can be spent

I get mine from either Lloyds (order online, pay a fiver, delivered next day, no commission) or the Post Office (drive 6 miles into town, search for space, pay £2, walk, queue for hours ) but I see that my local Sainsbury's now have a bureau de change so I might try that next week whilst I do my shopping

they charge you for taking the money out of a cash machine, commission free at the post office for me, helps that i'm a post myster

think the only bank that doesn't charge, or at least didn't was the nationwide, could be wrong though
