Re: Exchange Rate Today
And the most dramatic plunge today, 3 cents in under an hour, began when Darling announced the date of the pre-budget report. Honestly, it seems like every time he or Trousers Brown open their fat, stupid mouths, the pound (and the rest of the UK economy) takes a kicking.
Why don't they just shut up? |

Re: Exchange Rate Today
I still get paid a small salary from England, and the exchange rate is awful, $1.51, I got a few days ago, and to add insult to injury they charged me 1.50 just for getting money out, and Bank of America charged me 3 dollars just for using their machines. Outrageous. I hope all the banks go bust.

If you want to have your UK salary paid in McVities Chocolate digestives we might be able to work out a trade. ;) |
Re: Exchange Rate Today
I was 'lucky'.....I got a rate of $1.57 from UKForex on Monday and sent over $12k....it arrived today in the US bank account.
Won't be doing that again in a hurry if we are now below $1.50! :ohmy::unsure: |

Re: Exchange Rate Today
No I won't.....I'll be using up that cash first unless the rate goes back up a bit.
I accept it might not go back up for quite some time, but I have to try and maximise what I have. |

Re: Exchange Rate Today
excellent news > $1.49 :thumbsup:

Re: Exchange Rate Today
$1.47 wonder how much this is costing the BOE to support the falling pound

Re: Exchange Rate Today
I remember in 1934 it was $5 to the pound ( I was young then )
and in 1985 $1.05 to the pound ... |
