most airports have exchange booths.  some banks do exchange, most do not require you to have an account.

Answer 5

Yeah there are, call your local bank, ask them if they do, if they don't, they'll tell you which banks in the area that do, although there usually is a small fee, it's not much.

yes!! Bank of America does!!

Answer 8

If you plan on going back to Europe at any point, just hold on to it.  You lose a lot of money exchanging it back and forth.  Some banks will do currency exchange, however, most do not.  Try calling your bank that you use, and see if they are able to do it.  A lot of the ones that do, require you to be a customer of theirs.

Answer 9

No, you don't need to have an account in a certain bank to convert them. Most banks can do the exchange or you can go to any money changer shops.

Just a little tips : if you have Pounds and Euros right now and you want to convert them into US Dollar, better do it right now or as soon as you can. The exchange rates for those two currencies against USD just hit the highest in history today. You might not get this much if you do it in the middle or late next week.
