Selling in spain

[Seastoke]

So we have sold our gaf in spain and the money will be going the the fund the question is how do you get a bad exchange rate so so you get more pound per euro ,thanks for reply

Hi depends how long you want to wait as"reported" the pound will get stronger next year????. The only other thing you can do is try for the best rate with the money exchange people, plenty around. I used currencies direct, and don't always accept their first offer, negotiate. Just be a bit careful to make sure they are secure. Good luck, Rgds, Roger

Presume you stuck the dosh in a Euro account?

When I was buying a house in France a banker told me that a transaction above £20,000 should be at "Inter bank Commercial Rates" this was just before Crown Currency Exchange went into liquidation owing people millions of Pounds,€uros etc. I am glad I stuck with my bank.

You might want to consider naming the thread slightly different as I am sure we are always looking for Euros and their are many people on here who are in the same situation, that way you could agree the full bank rate so both sides are winners instead of the currency dealer?
Just a thought, let me know off you want to move some Euros to sterling.
