There was a glitch on their system just before 5pm tonight - went on to check the rate and it was 2.02 - I knew this would be an error but thought I would give it a go. Unfortunately when I logged into my account it reset the rate to 1.65. Oh well!!

how fantastic would that have been! I just topped up, considering I started buying at 1.39 I'm pretty happy with anything above 1.60

Sorry to but in on your thread but I'm new to the whole Fairfax card idea and wanted to ask some newbie advice...
Do any of you use it as a saving tool, ie, top up every now and then with the idea that you are saving the dollars on it for your holiday spends?
It's only just occured to me that this would be a great idea!
We are goin to Florida 2010 and I'm hoping to go to Disneyland California 2012ish so saving/using some dollars over the next few years would be a great idea for us...how safe is your money?
Thanks

I keep an eye on the rate and when it goes up to a level I want to pay, I top it up a bit. Every little bit at a time, when I have some spare cash. It's nice way to spread payments for holiday cash

Delighted to see that it's at $1.65 today so just added another few £s to my card - I can't believe I've got almost $1500 loaded now!!! Anyway, just want to thank the ever-awesome DISers who brought this great little card to my attention...

PS: Don't forget if you sign up for a FairFX card via Opodo, the £9.95 sign-on fee is waived...
