I have noticed a movement in the right direction - Will be happier when it gets back to its former value, tho.

The banks are 'buying' the USD @ 1.91 - the prices you are quoting I think are the 'sell' prices. :-(

I got a wire in yesterday as $1.86 that's a 7c difference :mad: was it a UK bank or Italian?

[Skintraffic-JJ]

Trading today at 1.735

Trading today at 1.735

I guess thats more to do with the pound falling rather than dollar rising in value

Natwest converted my CCBill wire at 1.77 on Tuesday, not bad at all considering it was still in the 1.90's at Christmas :)

[morefodder]
