That depends on your travel plans. For a short city break, £200 to £300 is usually sufficient for daily expenses. If you are going for longer or want to pay cash in restaurants or shops, you may want to take a little more. At Pott Change, you can easily exchange extra pounds or exchange unused notes back into euros after your trip.

By ordering your pounds in advance from Pott Change, you are assured of the desired denominations and benefit from our favorable exchange rate. In addition, the amount will be ready at our office, so you will be helped quickly upon arrival without any waiting time. This is convenient if you want to leave at a fixed time or need larger amounts. What’s more, you don’t have to withdraw money immediately after arrival, which is nice. It is always advisable to take cash with you when traveling because not everything can be paid for by debit card abroad.

The biggest disadvantage is that the exchange rate may change between the time you place your order and your trip. If the rate becomes more favorable later, you will no longer benefit from it. You also have to keep the money safe until your departure. Furthermore, at Pott Change there are no additional costs or risks associated with ordering in advance. You only pay the exchange rate at the time of your reservation.

If you are traveling to the United Kingdom again soon, it may be useful to keep your remaining pounds. If you do not expect to return for the time being, it is best to exchange them back at Pott Change. We buy back your pounds at a competitive rate, without commission or hidden costs. That way, you know exactly what you will get back.
