Default Anyone want to trade my CAD for your GBP?

Hi

I should be coming home to Bristol in early July. Not sure how to trade cad to gbp and was wondering if anyone else wants to just meet in a bank and trade my 10k CAD for your GBP.

Was thinking if we did it in a bank then we could just deposit it while we're there so neither of us walks away with cash (open to mugging etc.)

Let me know!

I'm in. I'll happily exchange my £2k for your $10k

Let me know where and when suits you best.

2201. Final offer. To the rather dim OP, ask your bank if they've ever heard of anyone changing one currency into another before. Jesus.

Banks in Canada are only 120V, pounds are 240V, everyone knows that. The OP needs a transformer.

It may also need to be translated from French into English, so a dictionary should be attached.
