Has anyone got or applied ofr one of these? It is really as good as it sounds for use abroad?

Hi Jo

I was thinking the same thing. I think I posted something on here a couple of monthsa go and I can't remember reading any responses. Anyway, I applied and you've just reminded me that I haven't heard anything.

Doesn't answer your question though does it.

Hi,

That's spooky ! I applied about a month ago and hadn't heard, got the agreement through yesterday. I reckon the delay may have been because Martin Lewis, the money saving guru was recommending it. Lots of applications.

Sorry jo, no help on using it abroad I'm afraid.

Alex.

Can i just say i was a victim of fraud with my Abbey Zero card (probably my fault as i destroyed it but didnt block it- I learn!) and the service was amazing. They noticed , informed me, put private investigators onto it, reassured me on phone and by letter and recovered the money.

Ok, got my card now, all activated.

So, my thoughts are;I use this when I'm abroad to pay for fuel and shopping and I won't need to carry much cash.

If I use it to withdraw cash then I won't pay a fee but I will pay interest on it from the day I withdraw it. Couldn't I pay money in, say
