Pre Pay Credit Cards For Holidays...
anyone ever used one? Do you load the money on and spend away... do you get the cash back if you do not spend it all? We are going to NZ and have a couple of thousand pounds to take and don't want to take all cash. The bank charges if you use debit cards...

These cards are suitable for use in NZ. Your debit card may well work out cheaper

Hi Knowabit
Used one of these from Thomas Cook a couple of years ago in Canada and it was great. No messing around with all the cash you're afraid of losing !! Use d it to pay for goods (restaurants, shops etc) and also , if needed< to withdraw cash as you would at home. Highly recommended.

I have used the Thomas Cook one as well. With this one you can get 2 cards for the same account so if 1 gets lost you can phone them to let them know so that they cancel it and you still have the other to use. You can also see any charges that they make on the website so no nasty shocks. One thing I would say though is if you are getting a prepaid card and are not going to somewhere that uses the same currency in the near future then just before you leave say New Zealand cash the remaining money at an ATM that way you won't get a cash out fee on your return. Then you can change it back to UK money wherever you get the best rate.
only three toll roads in NZ, all with alternatives

The best idea is to carry your credit card rather than having the currency with you. I always use my credit card it is cheaper than the currency we do exchange. So I would suggest you to go with the CC only.
* Do carry some cash as well coz new place finding the ATM n all might be little tough for you.
