Where are all off to?

 

Where's the value > Brexit/collapse of the pound?

 

 

Put loads on, think a daily limit of £10k or even £20k

 

Only limited to the funds that are available in your account

 

Yes - use it any time you pay anything in that currency - you can use it over here to pay in £ if you wish

 

I had to pay a chunk of my wedding in Mallorca, switched £5k in seconds and paid over the hotel reception

 

Near fool proof

so how much can you put on it ???

 

​and is there a spend limit on it ???

 

and when you book in to a hotel and they ask for a card if you charge stuff to the room can you use it for that ???

As per Birch's post, although I would add that because it's a debit card l had to give the hotel reception my credit card details as a guarantee. When I came to pay the hotel bill at the end of the stay, I paid using the Revolut card.

Take cash and get bank rate.

 

Transfer money via transferwise but there a 1% fee but you always get the exact bank rate.

You do with revolut don't you?

Yes

Just back from Meloneras in Gran Canaria. Highly recommended. Bit like Paphos on a smaller scale with a nice promenade and plenty restaurants and a few decent bars. Wouldn't do more than a week as it needs to expand a bit more but totally different from Playa Del Ingles and Maspalomas (which is next door) which are looking very run down. Looks like one hotel chain has invested heavily and developed the whole area. Prices not too bad either considering the state of the Euro

When does the 2018 thread start?

You're 50 years too young to go on a cruise mate, and you don't smell of piss either

Did a week in kefalonia in June

 

Great location but very quiet

 

Not for you, I reckon

few decent bars, places to eat and good excursions and im happy tbh?

I'd say still too quiet for you

 

Bigtoe went a month after me

 

See what he thinks

 

Of this years two trips I'd think you would be better in kassiopi, corfu

 

Both had decent flights with thomascook

 

 

Check out koutoulafari or piskopiano in Crete if you can find suitable flights

As for next year, its a week in wales as the pooch deserves a holiday

 

Then a Greek week

 

Not sure where

 

Want somewhere greekish but no ferries as i cant be arsed

 

If it's somewhere new,likely to be lesbos but every chance I'll do a return to one of the above

River cruise booked for next may on the Danube

Looks utterly fantastic

 

I can recommend a few days in Dorset. Lyme Regis, Weymouth and West Bay all worth a visit

We loved our little break in Dorset and Devon - some absolutely stunning places

 

Go to elevenarife in 2 weeks; can't wait to get there and do fuck all for 10 days

We were in lesbos 2 years ago. Loved it.

 

Stayed in Anaxos at Haris Studios. The island seemed cheaper than anywhere i have been to in greece.

 

Petra was the next stop. And Molyvos (really nice) just after. All roughly 5 to 10 mins away from each other.

 

Would go again.

If you want more going on then Lassi. Its close to Argostoli and getting round the island.

 

We stayed in Lourdas/Vlachata last month. More laid back.

 

A car is a must. So many nice spots to go like Assos, Aghia Efimia, Fiscardo.

1.13 today. Up the pound

Olympic holidays. Lefkada. Phone me when you get here and we'll drink Mythos together
