I am going on a trip next year March and will need Euro and USD. Is it advisable to change currencies now or wait till next year? Do you think these rates will go up much higher by Feb 2014?

If you are going to line up 30 minutes at MV .....

Try this... look at the MAYBANK forex counter about 30 feet away....

I have been changing those popular currency with them.... and their rate is exactly the same as the two 30 minutes wait....
*
The MBB booth seem to match MoneyMaster rate when they started... now we need to compare smile.gif
But at least much shorter queue or no queue.

There's another Forex counter inside a news stand on the same floor... offering rate below MoneyMaster also smile.gif

Question guys -
I'm heading to Europe and company has given me allowance of 1000 Euros, but in 2 x 500 Euro notes.
Obviously I need to break the change before I go, cause I can't do anything (take cab, makan etc) with that large note.
I've tried some money changers in 1U & SS2, but they are not keen to change small notes & I can't blame them.

Any idea where to get this changed?
Possible at the airport (either KLIA or in Europe?)
Or can I do it at a bank? Is there any fee?
*
Just change it when you are in Europe.... the merchants over there are different mentality.
