Re: Exchange rate

The US dollar is so ingrained in the psyche of the American public, so much more so than any of the countries that gave up their national currencies for the Euro, that it would be almost impossible...

Re: Exchange rate

Re: Exchange rate

This is only true if you're with HSBC Premier - for those of us with peasant HSBC accounts, you CANNOT use globalview - I can only log into hsbc.co.uk and hsbc.ca separately, I also have no facility...
