    Abbey Zero and cards provided Nationwide or Post Office all offer commission free foreign currency transactions.

    You are best not to withdraw cash using a Credit Card at all. You will pay a high rate of interest from the date of the withdrawal and not adviseable unless you have money to burn. Better to use a Nationwide Debit Card inconjunction with their flexaccount.

    Enjoy your trip ;)
