Am heading off to China next week, and went in to a couple of banks in Dublin last Friday to get some currency (Renminbi) and was told that they didnt have any!!, they recommened that I go to one of the foreign exchange bureaus, which I didnt have time to do so on the day, just wondering if anybody has been away recently or being to China, which one that they would recommend, is there a big difference in the commission that they charge, thanks.
 
I visited China in 2004, and I didn't get local currency until I was in the country - I seem to remember reading at the time that Chinese currency wasn't available outside of China. That might have changed by now though. Bring US Dollars or Sterling and you'll have no problem changing them at your hotel. If I remember, there was also a currency exchange ATM at Beijing Airport while we waited on our luggage to arrive - it accepts Dollars or Sterling, and gives back RMB.

Can't remember if they accepted Euro or not.
