Useful to know

With the fluctuations the euro exchange rate has been going through over the last year or so, it has been difficult to plan and budget ahead for your holiday. By charging in pounds we make this a little easier on you, by taking on the head ache.
Recently have been made aware of another useful tool when spending money acrross borders.
The pre pay currency card. Works like any pre pay card, but you get a better exchange rate (if your organised and clever you can charge it up when the going is good and lock in the exchange rate then), can be charged online or by sms, no atm or transaction fees and free to get.

Nothing to lose.
