Best place to get Euro Currency

serpico77

I am looking to get some euros and found icici bank to be offering the best rate.

Are these reliable to order over the net for delivery?

Thanks

Seriously, I just use ATMs when i get to my destination these days. I can't be bothered hunting around to save a few quid

I get all my currency in Tescos now - I can use my Tesco credit card with no fees and get Clubcard points

Their rates match M&S and the Post Office.

I usually find that Cash Generator and the various Payday Loan type "Money Shops" have a good rate. They always seem better than the rates at Travel agents, post offices and supermarkets whether for Euros, Dollars or less common currencies (for the smaller number of outlets that can supply this) like Chinese, Thai and Tawianese currency.

There's a tool for looking who's cheapest on moneysavingexpert expert, used it today but then contacted ice plc who beat the best rate

Depends on the card, by the time the various fees have been loaded on to the transaction it can be quite costly

The Halifax clarity credit card is bizarrely one of the best to use to get cash out on

I always order from travelex and pick it up at the airport. They do a rate price match which I have used before and got a refund for the difference.

What he said.

Once you have ordered your cash, go to the MoneySavingExpert website and use their comparison tool to find what the best rate is you could have got and then send an email for a price match.

I have done this many times although more recently I have got myself a charge free card so now take cash out of the hole in the wall when I get to my destination which is cheaper still

Thank you for replies.
I ended up getting my currency from Thomas exchange global which seemed to offer the best rate and had an outlet near my work.
