ATMs & banks
« on: July 23, 2005, 12:40:20 PM »
Hello
I'm coming over on Monday and checking the paper was shocked to see that for the first time in decades the currency is going up.
Does anyone know how the fethiye ATM exchange rates compare with buying in the UK from Post Office, Travelex etc?
thanks

Mark not sure what paper you are reading but the exchange rate in Calis today is 2.25lira to the £ opposed to 2.7yl earlier in the year. 2 years ago admittedly i was getting 2.125lira to the £.

ATM, you will have the going rate of the bank in the UK which is much lower than that of the Turkey/resort.

thanks
that's pretty good - travelex today are offering 2.24 ordered online or 2.17 over the counter, so I guess that means I should change enough to see me over my first couple of days and then chang it in Turkey.
Even the money's better value in Turkey!
