flex account

[linzipinz]

I was just wondering if anyone knew if it is still free to withdraw abroad using the flex account from nationwide, i used this last year and it was great but i have heard rumors that it is being stopped this year.

if this is the case would it be better to take it all in sterling then change over there

thanks

Hi linzipinz,
I have a flexi account, so will have to check, but if it has stopped being free I will be taking part cash rest in Sterling travellers checks. At least the`re covered against theft and you get `Icmeler` exchange rates

Its no longer free i think it is 2% plus £1 standing charge, I have just got a Halifax Claity Credit card which is free to withdraw abroad
