Nationwide Credit Card or Debit Card

I have both the above. I'm travelling to Florida shortly and need to pay my accommodation bill on checkout. My question is - should I pay by Nationwide Credit Card or ensure there is enough funds in my account and pay by Nationwide Debit Card (or by cash by withdrawing at an ATM) or doesn't it matter. Thanks.

I have both cards and when I'm abroad I use the debit card to get a bit of cash from ATM's and pay for everything else on the credit card. I can then sort out the credit card at my leisure when I get home.
At the end of the day, I don't think it really matters as you'll get the same exchange rate and pay no fee whichever card you use.This space has been intentionally left blank0 -
You also have added legal protection should anything go wrong by using the credit card.0

Credit card for purchases - because of the section 75 like protections Nationwide offers for foreign transactions.
Debit card for ATM - because of the fact that Nationwide doesn't charge you to take money out."An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind" - Mahatma Gandhi0 -
Same as everyone, debit for cash and credit for hotels and large bills...0
