Yes ... that's what I figured ... see above post .. did it while you were doing this.
I had not looked at any currency rates for the last 18 months as not had the need to. Was rushing through the Airport ... so went to nearest Exchange Bureau. Did ask why I was paying more pounds(figure wise) than euros. Lady was Dutch I think, but another assistant came along and explained the rate of exchange was summat like .98.
My stupid mistake was not to look at their board and just accept, 'cause it had been almost level at one stage.
My next stupid error was to lose the receipt ... did mean to keep it.
Thing is they will have a record, as they asked me to put my address on their copy of their receipt, and I do know the date and time.
Please don't tell me I should have gone to the Post Office, etc., and should have been more careful .. I KNOW.
Just wanted to confirm that I still did not had my stupid head on before I try and get in touch with them... thanks Garinda.
