The exchange rate is better for us in Egypt than changing in the Uk which is ofter well under 10le to £.

Hi Alison,
Just read your post and can tell you that we use a certain building society debit card (am I allowed to say who) and we do not get charged any commission for foreign exchange and get a good rate. You can withdraw up to 3000 EGP per day. My last statement dated 30th April (for March) started at 11.05 and went down to 10.92. However, I have just been informed by my hubby that today we are getting 10.44 to the pound.
I will be leaving Egypt some time in June until August but I will try to remember to keep you up to date on my return.
