ATMs at Belfast International Airport

Hi

Can anyone advise if there is a charge for using the ATMs in the departures lounge at Belfast International airport for lifting Euros or do you just pay your normal bank charges. I am off to Spain and I hear there is a charge for lifting Euros at cash machines on top of your normal bank charges

Thanks
Val :)

    ATM at airport will dispense Euros BUT the rate of exchange is dire:eek:.

    it seems its their rate not your bank


    A while back it was parity, it's there to make a profit

    Avoid

    If you need to bring some cash..........try Post Office on line

    Or you can withdraw cash from a couple of cash machines on Donegal Square Belfast at your bank’s standard rates. I wouldn’t advise using the ATMS at the airport either
  • Various credit cards you can get that cost nothing to withdraw abroad. Interbank rates.

    Check out Halifax Clarity as one example
