Left with some kuna

easyrider · 4 Sep 2014 at 22:11

I went to Croatia a few weeks back and I have about 200 quid left in kuna...

Went to the post office today to change it back and buy myself a new gfx card and they said they couldn't change it unless I had a receipt....

I got it out of an ATM in Croatia FFs....

Can I change it at my bank?

try selling it back to somewhere like M&S their exchange rate is normally pretty good too

Possibly, depending on whether your bank has an on the spot foreign currency service, not all do.

Your best bet is M&S to be honest, I use them all the time.

Probably. Never heard of needing a receipt to exchange currency before.

Its worthless, you cant change it. Send it to me with a £10.00 note and ill get rid of for you. I know, I know, but I'm a sucker for a damsel in distress.

What sort of receipt do they require to change cash?

You need 200 quid of matata to balance it out

M+S or ice will take it (minimum 50 notes in m+S tho)

Read thread title. Can't get Hakuna Matata song out of my head.

What? Asking why the heck he got so much money out?

As you say, true though...

Natwest had the best highstreet deal on euros the last time I checked (a couple of weeks ago) - no idea if it will be the same for other currencies though. Also worth noting they will not change coins.

Planned to stay another week but couldn't get a flight

I'd just keep hold of it until you next go there... presumably you're going to return there at one point?

Might not be as easy, but we paid our leftover euro's into a Barclays account and they just give you their exchange rate. Ain't great but makes it simple.
