Currency Exchange.
Hello, will be on the Costa Del Sol for a few days next week and wonder where should I buy my euros, in the UK or in Spain? Thanks.

Depends where in the UK you buy them! Banks will rip you off anyway so just go with the hole in the wall for a few euros for holidays. Large transactions (property purchase etc) definitely needs a sensible Currency Exchange company to be used.

Re: Currency Exchange.
Hi there, we use a top up card for fee free conversions at very good rates. We use the Ukash card which is free to get online and you can pay for goods as a debit card free (MasterCard) and no cost hole in the wall withdrawals.
Yesterday we topped up and got an amazing €1.294 / UK£ Max load is €5900 min load is £50
No probs for the last 6 months. Hope this helps.

Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderator who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are usually friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge about the issues of living in Spain. I hope that you enjoy your time participating in the forums.
Please let me know if you need any further help.
