Obviously you don't walk into your local Barclays with a plastic bag full of cash and ask for it to be changed.

Local banks are clueless.

Call the foreign exchange desk.

Explain what has happened, direct them to pokernews and let them see the result. 500 Euro notes are not banned in this country.

Then ask them for an offer.

2% is the absolute maximum I would pay.

The problem is pretty much exclusively for €500 bills Keith, since a ban was put on place on UK banks/Change bureaus being allowed to hand them out. It's hard to get a great rate on something when its illegal to sell it here lol

The ban is on banks giving out 500 bills, not accepting them.

I changed some after Amsterdam last winter.

They were wary at first, but after I showed them the result on pokernews, they changed them immediately.

the premier banking manager in barclays knows what i do, was following the stream in germany and new where the money came from. Yet as soon as i said it was 500euro notes his expression changed. The "preferential" rate i was going to get was 1.31 as a premier customer, but this still would of taken up to 14 days he said.
Flushy's partner was able send me £ to bank within 48 hours, at 1.28, AND they collected the cash from me (i live in cornwall).
I will 100% use them again if i have no other way of doing it.
Thanks again
