I just got mine from Intercash @$1.485/£....However....the main exchange rate today went UP by 1.66 cents therefore the tourist rate will be greater tomorrow as they only adjust the rates at the beginning of the day ( I'm told )......I only found out about the increase AFTER I had bought my Dollars

Hope this helps.

Have a great day,

Paul

I went to Intercash to buy dollars this lunchtime (28/8), and because I left my work photo ID on my desk I couldn't get any, and I've got to go back tomorrow. Looks like it may have been a good omen if the rates will go up on Friday. Will have to wait and see.

I also wanted to buy a bag of coins, but was told there was a shortage, and they couldn't get hold of any!

I need to get these on Friday as I think the rates go down at the weekend and we fly out on Monday.

Just one more day at work, and so much work to clear!!

It WILL be worth it though.

$1.49 at Post Office today

M&S give good rates,0% commission & free delivery for £500 or more. plus its charged to your storecard so you can pay for it after your holiday

 

[Mowgli]

I agree with eyoreaud. I used M&S on a recent holiday to North America after comparing the rates from a number of sources including my bank. M&S came out cheapest overall and as mentioned, you don't have to pay until your next chargecard statement pay date (if you time that right - could give you over 45 days free credit!). All others you have to pay/is debited from your account immediately.
IMO, worth getting an M&S chargecard just for this!

I got just under 1.49 to the pound from the Nationwide yesterday I was very pleased with that.

 

[Carol Ann UK]

$1.50/£ from Intercash today. And I remembered my Photo ID.

Still no coins though.

I bought half of my T.Cs from TTT moneycorp about 2 weeks ago. I got 1.53 which I was pleased with.
They are London based, but they WILL deliver.
I see from Mickey's thread that they are still offering 1.53. I just hope the rate stays half decent, because I'm not going to have the money for about another month or so

89 to go

The GPB-$ rate has been steadily rising over the past few days, so now might be a good time to buy some dollars. TTT are offering 1.55 $ to £1 Sterling.

American express had the best rate, around 1.53/4, no commission no loss if you returned with money to spare (highly unlikley)

 

[Mrs Dazzle]

Well, I'm happy with the 1.507 I got free of commission at the Post Office. Just happened to be passing one while out last minute school shopping with DD and saw the rate, so in I went

All stocked up now ready for October as we bought a load couple of months back or whenever it hit 1.50 before It's certainly better than the 1.34 we were getting last year when we went
