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 :wink: :wink:

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
