It did get close to $1.90 a few days ago but has gone down consistently for the past 5 days. If Sarnia is right then it may go back up but the markets are very fickle and if anyone could predict a pattern ahead of time then they would be rich and not sharing the information with anyone else! I've done the same as Derek and got some when it was high a few days ago and I will use my nationwide account to top up when I'm over there. This is a way of "hedging" your bets i.e. which ever way it goes you'll have one lot of your money at a better rate. I would doubt however that it will ever get much above $1.90 on the commercial rate and it is still about $1.84 on the commercial rate and it has been as low as $1.40! You also need to keep it in perspective when your looking to deal at the highest rate as 1 cent difference will only mean £10 for every £1,000 you change. In summary it's still a pretty good rate even though you will lose about £60 for every £1,000 you change compared to the amount of currency you would have obtained at the best rate.
