Best rates will be achieved through changing your currency in a Cypriot Bank.

If you withdraw money from your credit card at an ATM, best insert your arm and leg with your card, because that is what it will cost you :-(

There is usually a charge applied, best contact your local branch and check what they charge at the moment on withdrawals using debit cards abroad.

"SHOUTING" is rude. Do not use your Caps key.

no offence but its your age moose. because of msn messenger and text messaging its like a second language for me and people of my age.

i read an article in the Times many moons ago about a man who wrote and article about 'text language' in text language. he won an award for it. very clever idea.

very off topic but :roll: hope mods are still asleep
