Great rates, efficient service

I ordered a small amount of Japanese Yen for collection from their London Edgware Road branch. Their rates are very competitive, they don't seem to have a minimum exchange amount and it was ready for collection within the same day. Service at the branch was friendly and efficient.

Holiday

This the 2nd time I have used Sterling Fx. Never heard of them before the first time of using till I googled Best Euro rates of the day & Sterling Fx came out on top for that day. It's the only company I have used that asks on what domination to have from large bills ie €100 straight down to the €5. Never seen a €100 euro till my order came. It will be used to pay my tourist tax. Will use Sterling Fx if the rate is excellent at the time.

Also the rates was much better with Stirling than all the other travel money companies I saw online
