Patphillips47 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Just wondering does anyone know of a UK bank or building society that is fee free if used overseas I think Halifax was at one time but I believe that's changed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderDrinkingCoder Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Nationwide used to have a nil fee / commission card once upon a time. Not sure if they still do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmerelda Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I've lived here in Australia for the last 22 years but I kept my account open at the Halifax. Every few years when I go back for a holiday I just update it with the small bit of interest that I receive. I've never paid any fees in the 22 years.

Patphillips47 Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 Ok thanks will check it all out We do bank with Lloyds which I will keep open but to draw from the Lloyds account or transfer via the net costs so was thinking fee free for overseas withdrawals might be the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderDrinkingCoder Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Personally, I'd suggest using Transferwise. Even if an account is 'fee free', my guess is the exchange rate won't be in your favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
