just wondering what exchange rates people are actually getting in resorts? just checked on google and its saying £1 = 2.34lev

does that sound about right??? I don't remember getting that much in previous years... Although my memory isn't the best whilst in bulgaria due to the cheap Booze Booze Booze

cheers

check out £ - Euro rates, Lev fixed to Euro at 1.995 Lv-E.
£ rates have been the best recently for months, most likely due to Euro's weakness, and not £'s strength....

just checked with M&S exchange rates who are usually good for currency and there offering 2.17 levi for your pounds...

if your changing £500 for a weeks spending money that's over £40 your losing just by changing it here...

well worth waiting till you get there!

Just stumble on this post, so the general recommendation is to change in Bulgaria and not in UK?
