Thought I might get some info in this forum about holiday money. Opened a Revolut account as it had been recomended on this site as being good for travel. any one give me any advise about using this bank on holiday in Europe. I see you can have several accounts with this bank does this mean I can change sterling into another account in the currency I am going to and then use the debit card in that country to pay or withdraw cash without fees. ?
( if i do this I take it I can not use the debit card at home unless I return the money back into my sterling account ? )
I just took out the basic account with no fee
I see you are limited to withdrawing a maximum of a £1000 per month or the currency of the country you are in fee free using it to withdraw cash when away, but I presume you can spend more than this when using the card to pay bills.
There own online help was so slow when i contacted them I thought I would go here for a few answers it might be quicker,
Thanks for any advise
