Is it worth it change Sterling to Euros?

Hi ronaldinu, It depends on the ex-change rate, ask how much is worth, if not just keep it till you come over here on your holiday. What part of the U.K will be going to London? Tamara

Hi ya ronaldinu The best thing you could do is send them to me!!! . I wouldn't bother changing them if you are planning on another visit to the uk!

Well, it would all depend on how long it will be before you go on another trip to the UK. If it won't be a few years then maybe it would be okay to turn it into sterling notes or just box them away for your next trip there and hope you don't forget them. Are they the same amount in each currency?

My personal opinion would be to keep them, especially if you are thinking of returning to the UK. The rate of exchange is not good at the moment so you wouldn't be getting value for money by changing them now. I go back and forth to the UK and Northern Ireland quite a lot and I would never change my sterling back to euros. It costs so much to get it in the first place and it would cost again to change it back.

I am not aware if how much does it cost in dollar the 170 sterling and even for Euros but if it is fine for you to keep it after sometime just to keep it after sometime and who knows maybe you could go back to UK one day......and you can used it.

There is something i think many members donot think of We are from all different countries and i have no idea how much 170 sterling notes is worth Also change your currency to what ???? Good Luck Canada

I don't think this question can be answered with confidence at this time. Any change of currency is a gamble. I can't understand how the U.S.$ in increasing against most currencies durring these bad times. I'm going to Australia for three months and I'm looking at when is the best time to changs my money. In only one month the Australian dollar has depreciated by almost 20% against the Baht. Now who would imagine that with the political unrest going on here.

If it was me I would wait until my next holiday in the UK. I always used to keep my foreign currency as I think you have to pay a commission for changing it and may not always get the best return. It is worth far more in the stores of the country it is from. But if you are never to go back to the country, you might as well change it, but wait until it is worth it's highest value.

Hi ronald as you have now said you would like to come back to the UK for a holiday I would hold onto your sterling..if not change it to your currency...littleowl

It's hard to say, but their banks are having trouble now too so if I where you I'd be trading those things in.
