Consider this, month on month: Even taking into account the rate Google gets may not be the equiv to the interbank rate quoted by Oanda, you would nevertheless expect them to be off by a similar amount each month. [edited by: stuartmcdonald at 3:07 pm (utc) on Oct. 29, 2008]
Very crummy rate from USD to AUD as well.
Payment made 28/8/2008 Exchange rate 1.165 (Oanda) 1.168 (Google) - Diff 0.003 in Google's favour
Payment made 26/9/2008 Exchange rate 1.194 (Oanda) 1.187 (Google) - Diff 0.007 to Oanda by a tad, I can live with that.
Payment made 28/10/2008 Exchange rate 1.634 (Oanda) 1.487 (Google) - Diff 0.147 to Oanda not happy!
