How do you write

Surely £12,300.00 is the correct British way of writing it. But other countries (and therefore currencies) do use a " . " instead of the comma, I believe.

Yes, it varies according to which country you are in, You need to be alert!

I was taught that the comma is correct in English, and the full stop in Danish and German.

No idea what is correct now, but your bank or accountant should know.

Bring back 2/6d. (Not that you could buy much with it now).

£12,300.00 I think. Cheques are always written with words and numbers - I can see why that is a good idea!
