Commonwealth Bank - the best exchange rate?
I have just had an email from the Commonwealth Bank to say the current exchange rate is 2.4250. At the time of the email, the interbank rate was at 2.4417 (it’s actually improved since 
).
I know no one is going to give me the interbank rate but does anyone think I can get a better deal from the likes of Halewood?

Say the interbank rate is at 2.42 Halewood will give you 2.41 depending on the amount you are changing of course!
