Hi OB's
I have around 3k cash USD that I need to change into USD, everything seems to attract fees.
As it's a substantial amount, I'm wondering the best way to go about it?
I have bank accounts with CBA and ANZ.
I have travel cards (that I've never used) with Velocity and Qantas.
I am picking someone up from the airport soon (but I assume that'll mean even more fees)
Any advice would be very much appreciated, I'd love to not lose too much money :-)
This is like saying: I want to buy a house but want to avoid paying bank fees, how do I do that
Regardless if it's the Bank or a Currency Converter, there are fees as currency conversion is a type of business
The current rate is 1USD = 1.404 AUD
You will never get that rate of exchange for your 3,000 USD even if you worked at the RBA.
Shop around at the currency converters and see how you go.
