Hidden Fees Drain Your Travel Budget | Leicester News
Description
Travelers are blowing through their vacation budgets by over £100 each trip—thanks to sneaky hidden fees like currency exchange and roaming charges. Despite setting spending limits, 43% still overspend because of these surprise costs. As a result, 70% are turning to cash, while 44% rely on debit cards for better control. A major win? The Co-operative Bank is now waiving foreign exchange fees on all debit card transactions abroad, making overseas spending feel like home. And when using card machines overseas? Always choose local currency—paying in pounds often triggers hidden conversion fees from merchants.
