Not sure

I ordered one of these for a recent holiday to Italy. Very annoyed to find it didn't work in any shops, restaurants etc but accepted every time at an ATM. I then discovered interest is charged immediately for ATM withdrawals but not purchases. I wonder..................... Reviewed on: 30th October 2016

Useful to use to purchase everyday items with added bonus of being a very good card for using abroad when required Reviewed on: 30th August 2016

Just a warning

I used a Clarity card for my trips abroad twice a year and was very impressed with the exchange rates with no conversion charges. However, I decided to close this account (and cheque account) and instead opted for a card that would give me some Cashback. AFter an unsatisfactory experience (since resolved) I decided to go back to Halifax Clarity and was astounded that I was declined. This is despite paying off any balance in full every time by direct debit and can only assume that the "computer" that dealt with my online application didn't like the fact that I had also applied and been accepted for a rival card!
