HIYA
I ARRIVED BACK YESTERDAY AND WHILE I WAS WALKING AROUND SUNNY BEACH THE HIGHEST RATE WAS 2.29 FOR YOUR £ BUT BE CAREFULL AS I NOTICED MOST EXCHANGE BUREAUXS WERE ADVERTISING WE SELL THE £ FOR... INSTEAD OF WE BUY THE £ FOR....AND ONCE YOUR MONEY HAS CHANGED HANDS THEY WONT CANCEL THE TRANSACTION AND YOU THEN REALISE THAT YOUVE READ THE SIGN WRONGLY AND YOUVE GOT A BAD RATE AS THATS WHAT HAPPENED TO SOME PEOPLE WHILE I WAS THERE. IM FROM MARINA VIEW AND THE MONEY EXCHANGE WASNT OPEN SO I COULDNT COMPARE WITH THEM, OR TRY YOUR LOCAL THOMAS COOK AS I FOUND THEY BEAT EVERYONE ON THE HIGH STREET IF YOU CHALLENGE THEM TO BEAT OTHER RATES.

Hi,
I always use the bank in Sveti Vlas square to exchane £s. Never had any problems and get a good rate.

we have just got back today and the rate has crept up all week, yesterday it was 2.29, the bank next to the police station usually gives a good rate or you can trust the crown booths they were giving the same rate never had any problems with them
