RIP aussie dollar

[alicia1506]

yay yay yay re the dollar going back up.. .

however this is what my bank is exchanging it for this morning: 0.932300

gah!!! i wish their exchange rate was a little closer to the actual cash rate!!

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

I think I am going to go and exchange some money today. I think I will get my ANZ travel cards set up for our US Canada trip and also for our Europe trip in March.

I just have to work out how much to exchange. The pound and the euro make me feel slightly ill when I look at how much you lose in the exchange, blech .

Oh well, I'll just have to take on a few extra clients to make up the shortfall .

 

[australiankaren]

anyone get a rate cut yet for your mortgages???

still waiting to hear re mine...

 

[BecBennett]

Nothing yet. I'm with the combank though, and we got .2 last time. So I'm guessing we won't get anything this time.

But we're climbing against the yen as well!

1.00 AUD = 0.98662 USD

Will it go higher ?? Please tell me yes!

Andona

Ummm...yes??

news.com business page reckon it will creep back up to parity in next few days, then edge down a bit again. Maybe they've got a crystal ball

My big blue bank meets second Friday of every month to review rates (ain't that nice of em')

I dare say we won't get a drop of anything, it's just the kid of people they are...

 

[australiankaren]

ok, rang my mortgage provider today..still no word re rate drop....they sure are quick to raise it, but drag their heels when it may cost them money....so have upped my fortnightly payment, went to the calculator and saw i will save 8yrs off my loan and a TON $$$$$ of interest..WTH didnt I do this sooner????

come on sweetie, drop the rate by 0.2 for me.....

I bought dollars on Wednesday morning, the dollar jumped by Wednesday afternoon so you people should all be donating to me so that I buy more dollars and then it will go up again

My bank account would be forever grateful if you would hold of buying or thinking about buying any US$ for the next 37 days

I also would appreciate if you concentrated on the Greek euro instead of the USD

maybe we should call it the "Andona tilt" when the dollar goes into a slide
