Right, o' hive mind,

So the new bike is arriving on the 9th November. I've known the date for months, and having been eagerly watching the Euro exchange rate, hoping it would move in my favour.

Anyway, does anybody have any tips\recommendations as to where I can the best deal on currency?

Cheers,
FJ

    For changing cash, the post-office has nearly always come out on top.

    For credit cards, get a zero commision one like the post office one, any slight differences in exchange rate between the main three CC providers is dwarfed by the commision aspect.

    Thanks Beginner.

    Has to be cash I'm afraid. I'll check out the PO.

    M&S has been pretty competitive in the past. Might be worth checking.
