Hi Jan
On hifx a few moments ago it was at 2.47 but i've seen it as high as 2.52 only last week.That 0.05 can make a massive difference if you're exchanging tens of thousands of pounds
I feel you can do much better than 2.4 at the moment.

regards,Lee

Get yourself a Natiowide debit card. Withdrawals from ATMs in Oz carry no commission charge, and the conversion rate is comparable (if not better) than what anybody else has to offer.

When are you going on your reccie? I have a feeling it will go up at the end of the month or the beginning of November. We need to exchange our money but I'm waiting till the end of the month. Just my opinion.
