A question about : Travelex Horrific Exchange Rate AVOID!!
Just a warning about Travelex at Manchester Airport. I'm not a frequent flyer and because this trip was last minute due to work, there was no real opportunity to get currency before hand. When I get money, I tend to put some trust in the company to give me a reasonable exchange rate. I don't expect the best, but as far as I'm concerned, this is a disgusting rate and my company may not be too pleased with me for going there, so I may be paying the price. Once bitten right? I even got a better exchange rate from the ATM that I went to in Denmark!!
So the actual exchange rate is about 9.40 krona to every pound. The exchange rate I got from the ATM in Denmark was 9.3510.
From Travelex at Manchester Airport, I got an incredible 8.2106, which means for every pound they're effectively short changing me 12p. In fact, it means realistically, that the Ј309 I spent to get 2500 Krona, should have got me nearer 2878 krones, effectively they charged me Ј40!!! So yes, Ј40 of my Ј309 went into someone's back pocket.
Now it's whether my company will honour such a disgusting exchange rate. I'm not holding out.
Travelex go onto my black list.
