Best credit card

[floridaforever]

Hi, Which credit card is the best fee free or cheapest to use in Florida? (My halifax one has charged me a fee which I have never noticed before) And do you think I will be able to get one issued in the 1 month that I've got before I go?
Thank you!
Melissa

Post Office mastercard is fee-free for foreign transactions (and holiday cash you get from a PO before you go). Cash withdrawals still incur a charge, but I don't think that's avoidable.

I think mine took less than 2 weeks from application to arrival, IIRC. Apply through topcashback or quidco and get some money back as well!

If you click here it lists the best cards for use abroad. Halifax Clarity is the best, no fees for purchases or cash withdrawals (still could be local ATM fees & interest to pay)

scroll down a little and there is a chart with best cards and fees.

I have used Post Office for last couple of years but just got Clarity a few month back, both good cards.

Quidco give £26.50 cashback for Post Office card.

You said you have a Halifax card...the Halifax Clarity credit card is free to use abroad. Got mine to use for my trip to Disney
