Anyone needing euros

[princess jackson]

Been out shopping for our holiday money, we tend to shop around for the best deals, anyway we found M&S, were offering the best rate, compared to the hight street travel agents, we gto 1.43 to the pound,

Thought i would share in case anyone was needing any money

Thank you.

I always try M&S's rates first and for my last three holidays they have given the best rates and without any commission charges too!

I have also found they have given us the best travel insurance deals too.

I need some euros in a weeks time, our M&S doesn't do exchange, any one know where else is good at the moment?

I thought you needed an M&S credit card to exchange currency??

For me, im going to Travelex, they are local to me - Farthing Corner.. about 2min walk. They are offering €1.4281 to the £.

You don't but if you do the M&S credit card they don't charge you any interest or fees on the currency purchase, so you can have the money intrest free for the 50 odd days before the next statment.

Most other banks will charge you a % if you purchase currency on a credit card.

Just been doing a search and you can order from M&S online, and they will be delivered to your door.
The exchange rate at the moment is 1.43.
You don't have to have an account with them you can pay buy debit or credit card.
Rate with my bank is 1.41 so may as well get a few extra euros and get it from M&S.

Just a tip.
If you stay in a Disney resort give the number of your credit card when you check in.
You get a paper witch you can use to pay every where. Just show it in the shop or restaurant.
When you check out the staff member will check all your credits and then they will be credited from your account.
You practically don’t need cash. It works perfect.

Just managed to get some Euros at business rate from my husbands employer. €500 for 1.4846. We will get the rest from Travelex who still offer 1.4381.
