Default currency exchange - plano

Hi all,

I am looking to exchange Euros and Canadan dollars, can anyone advise me which is the best place to get this done to get a good rate.
Will Bank of America be ok or is there other financial companies I can go to?

Thankyou

PM

xe.com is highly recommended by people on this site...takes a bit to register but worth the hassle for the rates you get....but anyway, have a search of the forums as there is plenty of advice here, even a few threads that are a couple of weeks old...
