Lloyds charge £1.50 per sterling withdrawal (I do it weekly here in Fethiye)
Don't withdraw lira (3% plus £1.50 - OUCH !!!!)

Is the Turkish Lira becoming a closed currency?

Another big hit for the lira today, Moody's downgraded the credit rating of twenty banks and finance companies yesterday.

But fear not, the boy says everything is rosy.

The £ seems to have bucked up a bit.

TURKEY’S lira currency crisis shows no signs of abating as economic confidence slumps to a nine-year low.

The UK's run out of Lira!

Should I use hard cash/notes to buy Lira in Calis or would my Lloyds debit card work just as well without prohibitive penalty?

If cash is best I'll draw it out tomorrow before Thursday's much looked forward to arrival.

Thank you.

Bring cash, why pay to draw it out and some of the cash machines in Çalış have reputations for being dodgy/cloning cards.

As the recent crisis was declared over, this must be a new crisis.

Lira weakening at alarming rate.
