    This is essentially a bargain info request for the above:

    If one was to walk into Ulster Bank etc in Belfast looking to exchange Euro; What exchange rate could I expect from the various bank branches? Fluctuating spot rates on xe.com aren't realistic for this type of transaction - So maybe a local can help out here?

    Thanks in advance,

    C.

    hi

    I use http://www.northwestmoneyexchange.com/ in Derry
    Still only save about 3 pound of 600 euro so not great either

    You will have to ring the banks to ask them their rate
    They dont advertise it and even the banks have started to change the rate at lunch each day

    I wish i was changing euro instead of the other way around
    My wage has gone down 25% in last year :(
