    I bought from Travelex @ 1.141 but got a refund on a price match with Thomas Exchange who were selling at 1.16.

    Was going to price match with Thomas Exchange Global but they seem to only offer a good rate after 6pm and then drop it again at 9 the next morning.

    Do Nationwide pay EXACTLY what the trading rate is?

    They pay at the VISA rate
    W.W.W.corporate.visa.com/pd/consumer_services/consumer_ex_results.jsp?from=GBP&to=EUR&rate=0.0

    at the moment it is 1.18!!

    I am with nationwide and In Northern Ireland so I can just nip across the border and withdraw at this from an ATM.

    But I needed £5000 and the ATM is limited to £300
    So even using my wifes card too, that would be alot of trips!!

    Recently it always seems to have a good start to the day, before tailing off again.

    Still, it's generally going in the right direction...
