Seems like some companies have less competition and scam the public, because they can!!

Terminal 5 Heathrow, I'll have to check which money exchange Co.,
was doing it as my wife works in the Airport and keeps a check on it.
They may charge commission, (not sure), but she gets it commission free as an airport staff perk whenever we fly.
€1.176 yesterday. It looks like it is slowly rising again!!
I notice that San Stef rates are usually slightly better than UK.

Believe me - - -I have to listen to the update every time she visits the terminals!
"guess what the exchange rate is today in T1 and in T4 it's and in T5 it's . . . . - - - are you listening?" - - "yes dear"!!

Now! if she'd said  - - "you should'ave seen what this girl was wearing - or not wearing in the terminal today - Etc"
She would have had my full attention and it would have been - - - -
"well did you take a picture on your phone"? -
"don't be silly" etc!! but at least I would have been more interested!!

Strangely, there are small differences between the exchanges in diferent terminals as well - work that one out!!
You would think that they would all be the same!!

We have always found it's slightly better there!
But we are talking pennies these days realistically, with the pound the way it is!!
Take some Euros - take English and change the bulk there is my advice!!
