I am told its available to use in all places displaying the mastercard sign but it says visa on the card . confused.com. !!! the rate in Tesco to buy is 1.124 at the moment ..where they get 1.17 from on the telly ill never know ? thinking the card may be good idea for the lump of my spends and just take so much to get me by for few days . always avliotes or sidari if the atm don't work in the village .

yes mate I looked at all avenues and do every time we go into the euro zone. With the rate we got 115 I found that if I changed at resort I would pay 2% commission there fore I have took all euros and won't need to change in resort
thejoneses:
been told that the rate should improve a little in next few weeks . hardly concerns us in the grand scheme of things (maybe save enough for a mythos if we shop around) . all part of the preholiday excitement though!! 1.46 in 2002 is a distant memory .
