^how much does coinster charge for changing coins to cash in the UK.

It cost 14% of the value of the coins here at one of those coin machines.

woah, thats alot


4.5% - 8.5% depending on where i go,

outside london it's generally 4-6% inside 5.5-8.5%

only issue with the coinstar machines is they break down when you put in alot of coins,
putting in more than 28lbs of coins usually chokes the machine, (i get serious amounts of coins, i find it hard to spend coins)
