woodpecker 0 #1 July 20, 2008 I have an ASS TON of coinage (pounds/euro) and wondering if UK banks will trade it out for bills? The bank on base wont accept coins and I really dont want to just end up giving it all to Shropshire. Its bad enough he's going to end up with about 6 free jump tickets. blah BillySONIC WOODY #146 There is a fine line between cockiness and confidence -- which side of the line are you on?

Scoop 0 #2 July 20, 2008 If you have an account with them you can bag up your coins and pay them in, then walk outside and draw it out the machine. If you want to change any of your sterling to dollars do it at the post office with cash (don't use your card!). The post office don't charge a commission.

woodpecker 0 #3 July 20, 2008 Guess I need to open an account then. Damnit! Thanks for the heads up scoop. Actually, I'll just have Tony convert it. lolSONIC WOODY #146 There is a fine line between cockiness and confidence -- which side of the line are you on?

Scoop 0 #4 July 20, 2008 'salright mucker. Some superstores like Sainsburys & Tescos have machines that convert coins into notes but they take a percentage as a fee. But you might prefer that rather than the tedious task of counting out and bagging coins. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

woodpecker 0 #7 July 20, 2008 I'll personally tea bag Andy when I meet up with him. All the trash he used to talk about the US and then he tucked tail and ran...hmmmm, sounds familiar actually. Bet he even celebrated independence day. Scoop thanks for the Tescos advice. Ended up having over 100 pounds in coin and I wasnt about to bag all of that up.SONIC WOODY #146 There is a fine line between cockiness and confidence -- which side of the line are you on?

Andy_Copland 0 #8 July 20, 2008 Actually i felt sorry for this country on July 4th. Who the fuck celebrates independence without even being allowed to have a beer outside and watch the fireworks I'm actually here on the wishes of her Majesty the Queen who wants me to map out the US communication systems under the false pretense of being a BASE jumper.

LouDiamond 1 #13 July 20, 2008 No worries, you can use that coinage at the pub for buying everyone pints since you know it will be raining and we won't be jumping.
