Any one just back and know what exchange rate you were getting over there?

Also anyone used their nationwide account card? What exchange rates were you getting?

I got back on Sunday and just before i came home i was getting 2.35 to the pound in the little market shop facing the S hotel and near to Aqua hotel, the change shops in the square were offering 2.31.

I was there the first two weeks in June. At shops, bars, hotels I was getting 2.30 but one day I got 2.35, that was the maximum. When the money ran out, I used my Nationwide card 5 times, the rate I was getting was 2.44. 2.42. 2.42. 2.44. 2.45, so a much better rate.

When I go back in October I am not taking any cash, except a few tenners for shopping, but I will just use my card.

i opened a nationwide account yetserday online, but as we go in 3 and a bit weeks, it might not be enough time to sign paperwork and send it back etc..

we usually just take cash with us...

I don;t have nationwide card.

The best deals I found were the usual supermarket below ICR and next to chill. Also the Supermarket over the Road from De Ja Vue, the one with the Orange front.
