For price matching: order through Travelex online as you would do normally, then call up TEG (02072401214 or 02078281880) or LinkFX (02072338822) and get a quote re their exchange rate. Email Travelex: [email protected] (must be done on the same day) stating the following: your Travelex reference number, your currency quote from TEG or LinkFX (and the fact you got it from TEG or LinkFX) and your address (Travelex will send you a cheque refunding the difference). Also Travelex normally acknowledge receipt of your email. Full terms and conditions of the Travelex Price Promise are on the Travelex website.

Has anyone used LinkFX at Victoria or Travelex with price matching recently? Is the information above still applicable, and in particular is LinkFX still the crowd with the best walkup rates? I need to exchange a few hundred Euros into pounds and wonder if LinkFX or Travelex are the way to go. BA miles as a byproduct would be nice obviously
