Three months ago that was roughly £222 ($1.98), booked today it's £257 ($ 1.71). This morning the pound is trading at $1.55, so unless things improve quickly (yea right !), the next exchange rate upload could see that YQ charge head to over £280 !
Just to confirm, the YQ charge went up from last weeks £257 to £283.40 after the new exchange rates loaded this morning.
