I'm thinking of moving to Warsaw. Anyone able to help me establish the cost of living in Warsaw compared to the UK? As it's the capital city are costs similar to London?

Any advice greatly appreciated

In the most recent survey of the 50 most visited capitals around the world that I have seen, London was the third most expensive and Warsaw came in at number 28. Warsaw is easily the most expensive city to live in Poland. If you want detailed info on the costs of living in warsaw, just google expats & warsaw, There is loads of info out there. If you are receiving a UK salary then Warsaw will seem relatively cheap. If you plan to work and be paid in Warsaw then you will find it difficult.

You may exchange currency in a bank or in a KANTOR, a Polish currency exchange office. Credit cards such as VISA, American Express, and Eurocard are accepted in hotels, banks, and larger shops in Polish cities. Moreover, there are also numerous cash point machines (BANKOMAT) available in the streets, (some of them are also located on Campus) which may be used with most of the major credit cards.

Banking hours are 8 or 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday.
