what will i get for this amount and should i use an agent and if so which one ?

thankyou

How much you will get depends on the exchange rate on the day. Your Bank would provide the service but with a charge. Most Banks will not act for non customers. The Daily Telegraph has a free money transfer service which may be worth investigating.

ask them and work out where to pay the fees involved...that sort of sum would be quoted on the day, not the actual exchange rate that they publish.....

The bank will do it all for you , just give them the details. They do such transfers many times every day.

>what is likely to happen to pound in next few mth

I wouldn't try to predict it. The experts know far more than us and the current rate already factors in their knowledge/views.

Martin Lewis sometime susggests hedging your bets- do half now and half in a month or so later

As I used to tell customers who asked, 'if I knew the answer to that, I would not be working here'.
Anything that happens in Business or Politics can cause the pound to rise or fall.
