You could try making a complaint to the Zabita police, you'd need someone who spoke Turkish though with you I guess. If enough people reported him, perhaps he'd consider giving up his sleazy, underhand life of little cons.

But, as Rustythecat says, what do people expect when they change money in a clothes shop. Sorry but that's the reality here.

Whilst the banks on thewhole do give the best rate,if you do not have an account at the bank you choose to change cash in you may find the rate is slightly lower!Same with turkish atm cards,some banks are working together,some arent,so ask your bank which will charge you and which dont.good luck

It's a wonder he's got away with it for so many years.  I suppose he feels invincible.

Cennet, he is sort of opposite Carrefours.  Always lurking outside the place trying to lure you in his den....

Use the silver jewellers on the left hand side just after the 'ex' dolphin roundabout, he offers good rates and is 100% honest.
