Has anyone used these people for buying Euro's. Any problems?

http://www.currencytoday.co.uk

They seem to offer better rates than where I usually get mine.

Example taken today.

Post office £600 = €728

currencytoday £600 = €736

I know it's not much more but every little bit helps.

Nationwide flexaccount is definitley best.
They don't charge you to get your money out and if you do have a problem their international phone number is quickly answered without going through the 'press 1 etc etc.' problems.
We've been touring France, Spain and are now in Italy and have saved a fortune by using them. It also means you don't have to carry a lot of cash as well.
The account was easy to set up and you can nominate other accounts to feed it/send money to as well.

Two weeks ago I tried my Nationwide flexi card for the first time in Paris. As a trial I took out just €20 and the debit on my account is £16.07. I think that works out at 1.244.

I will arrange to use it much more in future when away.
