Re: All Lira, Sterling And Money Questions Here

Postby noodles1609 » 25 Jul 2011 14:57

We were getting 2.57 in resort when we arrived 2 weeks ago, was 2.70 by Friday night when we came back. Rate is lower in Marmaris, and much lower in other resorts. I see the interbank rate has gone up again over the weekend too, the shops were pretty darn quick to respond to that so it'll keep going up I expect.

Thanks anyway Chris, I'll see what today's rate is like and if it's any good I'll order my lira over the phone (was going to do it online) and mention about the camera :)

The last time my son had an underwater camera he'd finished the whole film within about 2 hours, lol! :)

Mind you. he'll be 14 when we go so he might just want it for more than sea bed shots this time :D

Thanks again,
Jane.

How do you pay when ordering from travelex though, as they don't accept debit cards.

You can pay via BACS online and over the phone. You can pay my cash in any LLoyds Bank.

I've never used them before but they do seem to have had the best rate for the past week (not that I'm watching, lol!).

Apparently they are offering a free underwater camera if you order over the phone too :-)

Was that online or over the phone?
Do they give the rate quoted when you order or the rate when the money is sent?
