I should'nt moan, but am going to anyway!!!

FairFX rate yesterday lunch time was $1.61 to the £1
FairFX rate this morning was say $1.60 to the £1
As of this lunch time, the rate is now $1.59 to the £1

However, the $ rate has gone up, not down... I watch the Travelex rate everyday, and rate/inter rate is on the climb......, and FairFX is normally 2 to 3cents more than them (travelex)!

But also, the travelex site gives good indication on general ish rates anyway....
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!! come on FairFX, you should be on $1.62 today!!!

I could be wrong, but to me looks like general rate gone up, with FairFX rate gone down (for buying more $ today that is!)
