Anyone had any experience of them? I'm thinking about getting one from https://www.fairfx.com/ and was wondering if anyone had any experience / recommendations of this or any other currency card providers. I'll be needing one for when I go on Holiday in America.

I've got one of the Caxton FX cards, mainly because I'm currently gigging in Hamsterdam, and use it for lots of small cash withdrawals and incidental spending without getting fleeced each time. Easy to setup and their FX rates seem competitive. -
Thanks for that. I had a look, but it appears that the rate is a bit less than Fairfx. But I'll like the look of what's being offered.Originally posted by moorfield View PostI've got one of the Caxton FX cards, mainly because I'm currently gigging in Hamsterdam, and use it for lots of small cash withdrawals and incidental spending without getting fleeced each time.
