    Withdraw at the hole in the wall and pay for items in cash. Do NOT spend in a shop on your Halifax Clarity Credit card as they charge you a % of the spend.
    I have learned the right way to do things as I have been charged for spends on card in shops!
    Good luck.

    This is rubbish - Halifax most definitely do not charge a % of the spend, using the card for purchases is the cheapest way to use it.

    If you need to draw money out,find a Santander ATM. I used one in New York and never got charged.
