I go with the post office cause they always seem to be the best...IMO...defo was in Jan anyway...haven't looked since.You may walk and you may run
You leave your footprints all around the sun
And every time the storm and the soul wars come
You just keep on walking0 -

You'd be better opening a nationwide Flex account depositing your sterling in before you go on holiday then draw out your euros from an atm (showing the visa sign) as and when you need them on holiday you get an excellent rate way above exchange bureaus on our last trip a few weeks ago we were getting between 1.46-1.48 to the £ and that was over a 6 week period you can open a flex account online but at some point will have to go into your nearest branch with proof of iD etc .
Just going to say this. My OH is pretty clued up on these matters, and we always get local currency out of cashpoints - if you can do this, it's definitely the best way to go. Have a good holiday!0 -
Looked into this but on their web site it says you need to be with them at least 7 months before they will give you a debit card! Am I missing something?
"How to upgrade to a Nationwide debit card If you would like to upgrade your FlexAccount and have a debit card facility you may be eligible if your account is well conducted.
However, there are circumstances where we would not be able to consider upgrading your account, which include:- your existing account has been open for less than 7 months"

You will get a cashcard which works in ATMs worldwide on the same terms as the debit card, just can't use it for purchases in stores etc .
