Northern Irish Sterling

    Hi there,
    I'll be visiting Belfast for a day trip on Saturday. I got my Sterling last weekend but I've heard that Northern Ireland doesn't accept English Sterling (I had thought all Sterling was the same so didn't specify which type of Sterling I wanted). I have notes and they say "Bank of England" on the top. Will they be accepted in Belfast or should I try and source Northern Ireland Pounds?
    Thank you.

    I've never had any problems using English sterling in the North. But no end of problems using Northern sterling in England.

    Won’t be an issue

    It will be accepted. Was only refused once but it was cause the note was a very old note and not in circulation. If you have gotten the currency from the bank recently you will be grand.

    Just FYI, it's the other way round, NI notes are sometimes not accepted in England.
