The thing that sucks more is the unexpected and shitty conversion rate you get. I'm not too sure yet what's the best way to go about this, open bank accounts in all those countries and do your currency exchange yourself?
- Symbiote 11y agoFind a card using the MasterCard or VISA base rate, with no additional fee. As an example, I was charged CHF20.00 on 5 October, which the card statement says was converted at a rate of 1.4728 to a £13.58 charge on my account¹. XE.com has that day's average rate as 1.4785. There aren't going to be any other benefits to the card, but that's OK — I have another card for spending in pounds. The alternative is a pre-paid credit card. ¹ Halifax Clarity.
