changing Euros

[Turnbull]

Is there like a definitive place where everyone exchnages their euros? Because i'm moving house and I need to find some nice person to exchange my currency without charging me the earth. Anyone recommend anywhere?

Use your bank. Set up a bank account in France and then send SWIFT bank transfers between the two.

WE use XETrade. Good rate and costs about £8 per transfer.

There are a number of institutions, such as Moneycorp, Currencies4less etc. who will give you a commercial rate,which is always a lot better than the tourist rate you get if you transfer from your UK bank to a foreign bank account. If you are transferring £5000+ you don't have to pay an admin fee either.

We used MoneyCorp and they were great. They were really helpful, charged us zero comission on our exhcanges and even zero comission on money transfers. I've never had a problem with them.

[la vache!]

Moneycorp don't charge anything extra, but their exchange rate isn't as good as currencies4less. I got quoted 1,434 from CCL and 1,43 from MC when I did a transfer today, but I had to pay a small transmission charge - in the end I think they all end up offering moreorless the same thing in currency exchange, but in a different way.

Hi Alec Where is Aruba?

[alec]

LOL,
The Netherland Antillies normally called the A B C islands,

Aruba Bonaire and Curacao , about 20 to 30 miles of the north Venezuelan coast outside the Hurricane Belt and has almost a perfect climate. Caribbean for short
