Yeah, hopefully someone on here will confirm what the banks are offering. That's if the snow thats due for the weekend doesn't close the airports here in the UK. 1 flake & all hell breaks loose

re: Levs!

i used cash card visa yesterday at bank in pamps and got 2.21

the rate is creeping up because of the financial crisis in greece but the local exchange booths r not passing on.

2 days ago petes irish bar on pamps mountain were offering 2.15 located just below the mini wall.

note the local exchange booths offering 2.00

re: Levs!

Sterling to Euro rate is falling slightly, that will dictate the lv - £ rate...
Check rates...

re: Levs!

wont you get a charge from your bank for using your card abroad? therefore even if the rate is better you might find it equalling out a bit after the bank charge?
