M&S Credit Card Currency exchange

Hi all,

Does anyone know if it is true that if you use a M&S credit card to buy euros instore at M&S then it doesn't show up as a cash transaction.

i.e. I have a 15th month interest free card, so if I buy Euros on it I don't pay any interest as you normally would for a cash transaction?

Thanks

    Correct - Currency (cash & travellers chqs) bought in an M&S store are treated as purchases by M&S credit card. No interest if you pay in full on due date or if you're on the 15 month 0% deal.
