Question Re: Exchange Rates

Err... where is the "Currency centre" then??

Would I get a better rate using my Nationwide VISA Card(no commission) at Bodrum Airport ATM or... should I bring a wad of stirling notes? (£1000)
Where is best rate to change it? (i dont mind illicit by the way)

Not a good idea to bring a wad of sterling notes. Use your Nationwide card in an ATM. Garanti bank are offering 2.34 today.

Re: Exchange Rates

Seriously? Better rate with VISA card than cash exchange?

Hi Gren,

It's a Nationwide VISA Debit card you need, not a credit card. Nationwide don't charge any handling fees. It's well worth opening an account with them for this service alone.

Re: Exchange Rates

Hi tjd. Thanks - I know - i have had a Flex account for ages. Brilliant innit!

I just dont know which is best:
1) Withdraw Nationwide YTL at ATM at airport.
2) bring £1000 (cash) then pay into Turkish bank - then do exchange online.
3) exchange £1000 (cash) somewhere else

??
