travellers cheques in majorca, is there usually charges if using sterling travellers cheques??

[alibo]

a friend who works at a post office says you don't usually get charged comission in spain when cashing in sterling travellers cheques, but you pay 1.5% to buy them here. euro travellers cheques you can get here comission free, but pay up to 3% over there when cashing them. i thought you got charged regardless of the type of travellers cheque?? anyone found this?? don't really want to take just cash!

anyone out there been to majorca/spain recently? Getting contradicting advice! post office say take sterling tc's as get charged up to 5% to change them, thomas cook say take euro tc's as get charged a lot to change the sterling ones!!??

sorry post office say can get charged up to 5% to change euro tc's

can not help always take cash

anyone just come back from spain??
