Hi Basjoe
As I have said on previous postings, in the past I have used my Post Office Credit whenever possible.I have done this due to its excellent exchange rate and its 0%loading when used abroad.I have backed it up with pound notes which I have changed in the village as necessary.
This year I am taking cash in the form of Euros.This is due entirely to the Greek economy crisis.There may not be a problem but I am not taking that chance.As numerous posters have said do NOT rely on the ATM machines.

Well I live in Avliotes (next village up from Agios AKA San Stefanos) and all winter I have happily taken my UK money (in euros) out of the cash point there as I do believe many ex pats do this is the main village so it serves holidaymakers and locals alike. It never seems to run out of cash (receipts sometimes have been known not to spout, but when I check with my UK statement it does relate)) or I have been lucky.  I have no idea in fairness re the cash point in Thomas Bay, could this be down to the bank who supplies the dosh????? The one in Avliotes is owned by PRO bank and seems to supply locals and others with their weekly limit of euros. Jimbo the one in Arillas run by EUROBANK was closed last summer, although there now is in its place a pharmacy?????
Now going onto the ever asking question of will it be Euros or Drachmas, we will all know more the voting is this Sunday 17th June and according to UK and Greek and other papers.medias whatever happens will not happen overnight so bring your euros and pounds etc.  When I go on my hols to India I take, Euros, dollars, GBP and then when I run out I use the ATM whatever currency I have the chage for Rubbies - they all want your money at the end of the day..........
Let see whats happens this sunday 17th June could be a turnround point for Greece or not and hoping to see all  our friends from here very soon, phew its hot today 35c ++++++

Hi Lesley
 
Are these "Rubbies" you have in India "Ruby Murrays" (curries).  I love them too!!! But I didn't know you could get them from an ATM, pretty messy I would think!!

I'm willing to wager now that if the anti austerity partys come to power then Greece will exit the Euro on 1st Jane next year.

And on a lighter note......if the cash machine is playing up....Tikka things as they come and try to remain Korma
