Avoid the Change Group (Vimmelskaftet)!!!

When you are in Copenaghen, beatiful city,

pay attention: avoid to change your money at the office of the Change Group (Vimmelskaftet 47).

Listen what happened to me and my son last August 4th.

I read outside 755 DKK as official price of the change. I asked to change a little amount of 100 euros and the operator (Eduardo 112) told me that I could have obtained a higher rate if I changed 150 euro. After I agreed, he gave me 961 DKK for an exchange rate of 728 DKK (!!!) and a service fee of 11,99% (!!!).

I think that exchange rate was a real fraud.

The number of change reference is 572184 and I can obviously produce the pertinent documentation.

The exchange rate was pretty much OK.

You had to pay DKK 755 to buy EUR 100. But you got DKK 728 for selling EUR 100. There is always a difference in the buying and selling rates. But the service fee was exorbitant.

The official bank rates for August 4th were:

734,47/buy 757,55/sell for cash transactions.

Most Danish banks (and also FOREX exchange office at Central Station) charge a fee of DKK 30 for exchanging cash.
