Best UK Credit Card for use abroad??
We need to get another credit card before we leave the UK. I know there is one that is supposed to be the best for use abroad - low fees or best currency conversion rate etc - does anyone know which card this is? I think it might be alliance and leicester or nationwide. Can't remember now that I need to apply for one!
Thanks

Nationwide.
Definitely - no question about it.
Their online accounts are pretty good too

Nationwide: they charge 2.75% less than almost all the others on foreign transactions.

I just use my First Direct Visa card and then pay the bill online as we still have our bank account. We don't get charged a fee and the exchange rate is always pretty good
