Exchange rates???

Exchange rates are crap at the moment I wonder why this is 

Cos it's the heavy holiday period.

Question is will it improve in september.

Probably October  But it hasn't been over 1:1425 recently anyway 

managed €1.13 to £1 today for £500 best I have seen for a while.

Caxton is 1:1410 right this minute Did you look Bob?

The government keep devaluing the pound what can we expect!!!!

It's going up. it's £1.1430 now

The euro has suffered equally so the exchange rate won't alter much.

1:1460 tonight

1:1510

Going up Andy!!!, I need to exchange by the weekend.

kids go back 
demand is falling

1:1550

Still going up
1.1570

1:1610

1:1630

Still holding out till the last minute.

1:1620 Asda click & collect....done!

Caxton text to load save the feet time and petrol

We went for cash as only need money for 3 weeks., Asda only walking distance from home.

We just draw the cash at any shop we visit in euroland without going out of our way at all 

1:17

And the drop starts 1:16

I topped up our card at 1.17 in readiness for our trip to Germany in December for the Christmas Markets.

I see Angela Merkel is back in charge of Germany's finances.

Which markets are you going to?

We want to go to a Xmas market this year preferably in Germany (which is ironic as the Frankfurt market in Birmingham is only up the road!) but imagine the stellplatze would be full to the brim.

We use travelfx.co.uk for our holiday cash
Still at 1.1736 this morning and free delivery (over £500) 

But prefer the Nationwide card which gives a better rate and no fees
August we got 1.15 for cash  via travelfx (best in the high street was less than 1.14 at the time)
Average on the Nationwide card was 1.17

Looking at exchange rates again without using caxton card, so far up to today the best we've found is "moneycorp.com" @ 1.2027...

travelfx 1.2075  every little helps

Sorry, I have only just seen your post.  I was topping up my CaxtonFx card with that rate.  They are currently loading at 1:2010 so not as good as TravelFx.

All done @ €1.2125/£1 free delivery   

Thats a good rate Mark where from?
