Money exchange

What ho one anad all,

Doing a bit tidying and found some old currency that none of the high street banks want to touch (Cypriot £ and some old US $)

A web search has brought up Left Over Currency (https://www.leftovercurrency.com/) It is not a lot of money but does anyone have experience of this company? If I send the cash, will I receive sterling in exchange? They are based in London and I have spoken with them so they do actually exist.

Any advice taken on board.

Toodle pip and thanks

Rex

    Have a good trust pilot rating, if in doubt send the smallest amount they change to rest the water? You got nothing to lose if this your last option?

    Thanks; now I see the TrustPilot logo on the LOC web site and see that they have a rating of 9.8 which seems to be almost as good as it gets.

    Will send the currency to them.
