Although, March to June is considered to be the best times to visit the UK, you can find great deals if you visit in the colder months of the year.

There are several ways to exchange INR for Pound Sterling, but how can you get the best Pound exchange rate when travelling to the UK? Read on to find that out. Before revealing how to get the best Pound exchange rate when travelling to the UK, following is a list to compare the British Pound rate today: Debit or Credit Card– Using your international debit or credit card to withdraw cash or to make a payment in the UK is extremely convenient.

That is because your international debit or credit card carries the Indian currency. How much will be the currency conversion charge? Good question; it can go from 6.5% to 11.5% depending on your card issuing company. Recommended– No Wire Transfer– Wire transfers can be made from india to the UK through banks and non-bank vendors.

The commission charged on Traveller’s Cheques range between 5 to 7%. Although it is still used, its usage has fallen drastically as it is not widely accepted. Hence, carrying Travellers Cheques to the UK is not at all recommended. Recommended– No PayPal– PayPal and similar wallets are quite easy to use and extremely convenient, but the charges make them really expensive. There will be currency conversion charges in addition to Paypal’s own charge. That, however, is not the only drawback. Although Paypal is fairly popular, it can only be used for online transactions and not to withdraw cash.
