Hi All,
I've been using a couple of currency exchanges and I thought I'd share my views
CurrencyFair
Good if you want to exchange large amounts of money and want to get as close as possible to the 'spot rate'. Does involve some extra steps if you want to 'trade' yourself
(15€ and free transfer bonus)
Revolut
Theoretically this app is awesome and I;ve travelled to the US and used it. You get a Master Card for free with no fees attached. Exchange is done at the xe.com rate. You also get functionality to transfer to friends for free
It does however have some issues when you need to sign up, and even verify your identity.
