Just loaded up my hol spending money on this only to read loads of people having nightmares getting there money at ATM's etc when abroad, so obviously a bit worried. Its going to cost about 150 GBP to get the money back off the card too should i choose not to take it away with. Has anyone had any experience of using these...?

Not familiar with this one but is it too late to get a Halifax Clarity card as a back-up? They seem to be the default "best way to spend overseas" card for both purchases and cash withdrawls.

We use ours all the time now -France, Portugal and Ireland so far.
Only refused money once in a bank in Morzine....but there's always another one round the corner 😀
