I have just used the halifax clarity credit card in the USA. It was great, free to withdraw money from cash points and no fee to buy anything in another currancy. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Very Best Card for using at home & abroad

5
Great little card to take abroad for purchasing items anywhere. No fees at all and a fabulous exchange rate - buy using the currency of the country you are visiting. Had this card for over 5 years now - can't beat it! Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

perfect for overseas spending

5
I got this card solely for spending on holiday. It has a near perfect exchange rate, it actually cannot be beaten. I made some simple calculations and the difference between spending £500 on this whilst on holiday and swapping with the bank or post office was over £65 Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Best rates of Exchange without fees

5
I have to say that I have had a Halifax Clarity Card now for about 3 years and it has been really true to its word - CLARITY - no hidden fees in exchange rates for travellers like me and it gives me a much better rate of exchange on purchases abroad than any other card I have had. It is actually better than cash ! Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Perfect card

5
I needed to increase my limit on my card and this was done with just one simple phone call. Quick and easy a few simple questions and I know have a card I can use with great rates aboard and even pays me a fiver to spend over £300 a month on. Can't be bad getting free money. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Great for Travelling

5
We always take our Halifax Clarity Card when travelling, as it offers the best rates for withdrawing cash while abroad, so saves the hassle of carrying and converting large sums of money. Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

Fantastic

5
I use this card regularly for foreign transactions, both in the UK & abroad with no issue whatsoever. It's fantastic not having to worry about foreign transaction fees and using it in exactly the same way as I would in the UK Reviewed on: 5th February 2016

Market-leader rates for holiday spending

5
The Halifax clarity credit card comes out top of the best-buy polls year after year as a card you can use abroad on your holidays. The exchange rates are good and being a Mastercard, it's universally accepted everywhere that accepts credit cards! I wouldn't go on holiday without mine! Reviewed on: 30th December 2015
