Once I arrived in Copenhagen from the airport and into Central Station (Forex is in the Central…read moreStation in CPH) I took a ticket and waited for about 10 minutes for my transaction. I had a few hundred dollars that needed conversion. Their exchange rate is extremely fair and they charge you a 25DKK processing on top, which is fine. The attendant was friendly and efficient. Forget the exchanges at the airport - take the subway to Central Station and hit up Forex. You should also note that you need to take a number from the little machine on the right hand side. You can see it in the profile pic. I missed it initially until I noticed to the side.

This is not really so much a bank anymore as it is a meeting room. You cannot even deposit money…read morehere now, you can only withdraw and transfer.. from the ATM machine outside. But if you are a customer here who needs to speak with an advisor about loans and such, you can come by during their 'generous' hours of 10 am to 4 pm on weekdays and they are even open until 5:30 pm on Thursday, when you are no doubt still at work. For regular bank stuff, you can get everything else done at a post office. Oh wait, those are all closing down too. So you'll have to find a supermarket with the post office signage.

This place can be really crowded in rush hours, so prepare extra waiting time. I like this one in Nørreport because it's right outside the station entrance, it can't get easier than this, but this place - as I said above - is extra busy because a lot of people have the same thoughts as mine. Service is friendly and they tend to ask you a lot of questions these days, not sure if they were just being friendly or that they had other purposes, whatever, sometimes it's nice to chit chat with real humans. When you buy foreign money from here, make sure you keep your receipt so that if you have any left to bring back home, you can exchange it back with the same rate as when you bought it.

You would think that you could walk into any branch of your bank and withdraw/deposit money, but…read moreunfortunately this is not the case! Some (at least with Danske Bank) do not have ANY registers so you have to your business with an ATM. Luckily, this branch does have tellers that will take your hard-earned cash and though there is a line it usually goes quickly. They are generally polite and efficient.
