We're off to South America in July, is it worth buying some dollars now in case they fall again?

Is that some technical term? Surely the dollar would have to go up to get to the moon?

Actually, I have heard that the pound is so weak the Americans have bought loads of £5 notes and are going to use them to fuel the next shuttle launch!

How do Crown and TMS work... where do they get their money from? I've secured £1600 worth of $ at $1.56 to the pound for delivery on 6th June ... but I am getting the jitters.

How safe are they, does anybody know? A woman at Crown said they were trading well, but she would say that wouldn't she even if they weren't (like Empire Direct taking our order on 15th Jan and going into administration 4 days later)....

Thanks

$1.50 in two weeks ?

there is no protection whatsoever if they go under - therefore you will lose your money.

they have traded for years though and have many happy customers. however even though i used them just before Christmas for some dollars i would be reluctant to use them again solely on how worried i got when they had my money. the gains to me were not worth the worry
