AIB is quoting the best rate today - 0.8126 http://www.aib.ie/personal/current-accounts/Foreign-Exchange/Foregin-exchange-rates-Sell

Both of the banks charge commission which An Post do not but even allowing for that, AIB is the cheapest today.

This is how much £1,000 sterling will cost in Euros from each of them today, allowing for the banks' commission i.e. this is how much each will ask for.....

AIB €1,242.92
BOI €1,263.13
AN Post €1,250.31
