    Where overseas? MetroBank's current account allows for fee-free cash withdrawals and transactions in Europe, although I'm sure someone else has some better advice!

  • I use a Halifax clarity credit card for in store purchases and a nationwide flex plus account to withdraw cash. I spend a lot of time abroad and these are the best cards. Although the flex plus account comes with a £10 a month fee. It comes with added extras like Phone insurance and stuff. For me its worth it.
