Dear fellow saving experts,
I'm 24, I'm goin travelling to south east Asia in march 2012, and I'm looking for the best, cheapest current account for withdrawing money overseas. Abbey national used to do free cash withdraws but I can't see anything like this anymore
Can anyone guide & advise me of the best service??
Thanks,
Matt

don't use HSBC as they have blocked me out every time even though i have told them i was going abroad. The pre-payment cards aren't too bad, but either way most have charges now. Take some travellers cheques as they give you a good exchange rate too:T:T :beer: :beer::beer::beer: to the lil one
