A question about : What is the point of this forum?

It's supposed to be here to support people affected by the collapse of Crown Currency Exchange in 2010.

Now it just seems to be full of threads that belong in Flights, Currency & Car Hire.

Is it really needed now?

A question about : Wanting to book something in Italy from the uk

This might not be the right forum but here goes.

Might be a silly question but it's a while since I've been abroad. If you are wanting to book something in another country, in this case Italy, do you need to just look at the current exchange rate when you pay for it and pay the equivalent Euros in Јs or will my bank do it automatically if I pay into an Italian based account? Also will the bank charge to convert it?

A question about : Getting $$$ now or after Scotland decides?

Seriously thinking about getting my $$$ now for an up and coming holiday to the states in 3 weeks as I am concerned about the rate dipping if the result is a YES when Scotland votes on the referendum or once the vote is known either way will the markets stabilise?

Nothing changes until 2016 that's when indpendence kicks in...

Thoughts?

A question about : Sending money to Australia, help?

hi there
I'd like to send money to my niece in Australia for her Christmas and was going to do so by putting dollars in a card and posting it through royal mail special delivery, however I have just looked on the royal mail website and it states that Australia is one of the countries that does not allow you to do this.
Can anyone advise of a better way of getting money to her?
thanks
