Consider if you used £1,000 to buy US Dollars, at the Buy rate, you would get USD $1,555, if you then immediately sold your  USD $1,555 back to the bank at the “Sell” rate, you would only get £942 back and don’t forget - you would pay commision on both transactions too, so you could lose up to 10% of your money !!!
