That is a joke, deffinately better to get it in Bulgaria, I have always found going to the Bank in Chepelare is the best way. Always get a better rate there than in the resort, but 2.30 is an insult

re: thats bad

Its been 2.79 for the last 4 years at least, I thought the pound wasnt doing so good at the moment so we were looking forward to a better exchange rate! Crying Booze

That was last yr Phillipf..

Look at a thread below in resrt is about 2.66..

M&S are 2.56 lev ...I've not seen it as low as 2.30 anywhere..

The Lev is based against the Euro bibby not the £

In UK currency-uk and travelex giving 2.58 with free delivery or airport pick up, not bad for uk.
