There are ATMs in Turkey where you can withdraw Euros. All ATMs of one special Bank -at least in the touristic centres of Turkey- offer Euros. Unfortunately I forgot the name of that bank :oops: but I think it was the "lightblue" bank or the ATMs in the lightblue boxes...

For those who spend their holidays in Antalya-Lara: the ATM in front of the small shopping-centre a few hundred meters to the west of hotel "Delphin Palace" normally offers Euros...but it was out of order when I was there...

There was one in First Trust Bank that is located in same premises with Sainbury's in Derry, Northern Ireland. It is before Derry town centre when coming along N13 from direction Letterkenny.

Sorry but I didn't have guts to take pictures of ATM itself inside the bank.

And remember that it is different dot than closest Co. Donegal areas. :)

ATM gave two new J/S 20€ Trichet notes.

Why do they have such an ATM there? "For your convenience"? Where people use these euros then??

You are saying there are some goods in euro zone that are cheaper than outside the zone? And in IRELAND? One of the most expensive euro countries (as I have understood).

This was new information for me. :o

Are you implying that it is new to you that Switzerland is an expensive country?

This kind of caught me off guard: I saw a euro-dispensing ATM at the airport in Montréal! I guess there are enough daily flights to Europe (especially Paris) to make it useful.

I should have taken a picture of it, sorry...

Greetings

Could you please provide more details where you saw this ATM, as I did not see any in the Montreal Airport. There is a possibility that I would go back there, so I might be interested.

No, you should have taken NOTES from it!! :wink:

Do you people have any idea how expensive it is to withdraw euros from these ATMs? Inside euro zone it's free to withdraw money with all these (Visa) Electron -cards, but other currencies in other countries cost a lot. What about these euro ATMs abroad?

I've used an ATM in L'vov - Ukraine, where I got a choise of getting grivna or euro. Unfortinatly I wasn't a member of that ukraine bank - so I wasn't able to get euro's there.

It was past the security check, somewhere close to my gate, which was B52. There were two machines next to eachother: one with CAD and the other with EUR. I believe they were from the Royal Bank (Banque Royale), but i could be wrong.

Good luck!
