Don’t bother use someone else’s credit card abroad

We got a Clarity credit card to use abroad as there are no transaction fees on foreign purchases. You know why?

Avoid Halifax!!

1
I have been a loyal customer of Halifax for many years, but my recent experience has left me deeply disappointed and frustrated. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter contactless fraud, do not expect them to help you, even if you have strong, objective evidence that it wasn't you. Their lack of proper investigation, poor customer service, and refusal to acknowledge the possibility of fraud is embarrassing for a bank. I urge anyone considering Halifax to think twice and avo...
