Hi,
does anyone know which bank is cheapest for paying in a cheque in a foreign currency? I have one in Singapore dollars that's worth about £200 - but don't want to be stuck with high fees - I have accounts with most banks. Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks

Most will charge around £10 for a negotiation.
If they say they will collect the funds then expect the charge to be much higher and you could be waiting up to 6 weeks for the money.
I would use the bank you consider to be your main account where your credit rating is good.0
