Indeed - and even better with a Nationwide Flex account.
I think there are a few little charges here and there but they are minimal. It used to be completely free - I wasn't charged once, taking out small amounts in USA, Fiji, NZ, Aus, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, India. They've since put some small charges on, but last year in Vietnam, the charge was still well under a quid.

Can you use it in all the euro countries? and does it cost you to get one?
heading away on the 17th myself for a week would save me carrying money with me..
also if you put say 500 on it and spend 300 can you get the other 200 out in pound STG again?

Travelex generally give the best rate, you pay online via a card and they post the money to you. I find it gives the best rate.

Last time I used a card from the post office. Top it up with Euros and use like a switch/cash card. Found it really easy and have topped it up a few times since.
