We always draw sterling from HSBC's ATM and then go to TEB to exchange it for lira. We do have an account with TEB and usually get a slightly better rate than Dikmen change shop.

Usually draw money out of HSBC and change it in Seker bank (almost next door). They always seem to give the best bank rates.

So. Is it better to take pounds from the ATMs and change it to Lira than to simply withdraw Lira. :-\

Yes, because your UK bank will normally charge you for withdrawing anything other than sterling and that charge will be greater than the commission you'll pay at an exchange office or bank in Turkey.
