Get best rates for your Pound

This weekend, we had an excellent feature in The Mirror about the high prices that many consumers face when buying currency in airports, and explaining that you should get on the web to get the best rates for your pound. Have a look below.

"...FairFX has a pre-paid travel card that converted £200 into 220 euros on Tuesday. The Post Office offered 209 euros and Marks & Spencer Money converted £200 into 214 euros on the same day.

Stephen Heath, the boss at FairFX said: "Don't be misled by 0% commission offers.
"This doesn't mean that you're getting a good deal. It's the exchange rate that you need to look at.""
