Hi all,

Last time I went travelling I used a Nationwide account because they didn't charge for withdrawals abroad but they have now changed their flexaccount so that you can no longer make withdrawals abroad. Bummer! 

Does anyone know of any other accounts that are good for travelling and don't cost the earth? 

Hi,

I use Barclays. You can withdraw abroad but be sure to tell them before you go! The charges aren't massive. Maybe about 5%.

Hi

I was going to look into opening an account in China - have the salary paid there etc - will let you know what i find out.

Thanks
