"FairFX's Currency Card ( www.fairfx.com) usually has the best exchange rates for loading with euros or dollars, as well as the lowest ATM fees. On a spot check earlier this week, £1,000 would have loaded €1,100 on to a FairFX card, compared to €1,073.5 on a Travelex card. And while FairFX charges €1.50 per cash withdrawal, Travelex charges €3.75."

Independent research by moneysupermarket.com shows that using a FairFX currency card when you’re abroad could save you a “small fortune”.

They say that if you fail to find the best deals in advance, and simply use one of the bureaux de change at the airport to exchange your money, the chances are you'll end up paying “through the nose” and losing out on extra holiday cash.

For example they found that, if you used a FairFX card to withdraw €1,000 at your destination, you'd pay £894.85.

But to buy the same amount of euros from a Thomas Cook bureau de change at Manchester airport, you'd pay £1,002.16 - more than £107 more for the same amount. So, for every £100 you exchange, you risk throwing away £12 by not taking the time to shop around.
