Tips to avoid the Credit Crunch...

How To Save Money

No one likes to pay more than they need. So we have come up with some great tips so you get the very best out of your Freedom Eagle Cash Card.

* Use the card for purchases rather than taking cash from an ATM.
* Use our website for balance enquiries and statements - there is no charge.
* Load your card when the exchange rate is particularly good.
* Keep your card safe! This may seem obvious but you may lose some or all of your funds on the card if you lose it.
* If you’re given the option to pay in local currency or sterling – always choose local currency. This process is called Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC). Retailers and ATMs have started to give consumers the option, which has led to confusion over whether paying in sterling saves money. If you opt to pay in pounds the retailer will convert your payment from the local currency into sterling, which, in the majority of cases, means an unfavourable exchange rate is applied. We want cardholders to continue to benefit from free card use abroad – always opt to pay in local currency. Remember to check the payment terminal before authorising transactions. If the value is shown in sterling – ask that it is changed
