Lloyds TSB card gives holidaygoers 'peace of mind'

Thu 5th Apr 2007

Britons are being encouraged to keep their finances as safe as possible when they travel abroad on holiday.

Research carried out by Lloyds TSB claims that well over a third of consumers travel with between £400 and £1,000 in cash with them when they travel.

This is despite nearly half (45 per cent) of consumers being worried about theft.

Over a third of respondents also described how they were nervous that they would lose their hard-earned holiday money, while 22 per cent said they felt awkward carrying foreign currency around.

According to the group, the Lloyds TSB travel money card could prove to be the best way to achieve financial peace of mind while on holiday.

The pre-paid Lloyds TSB card allows consumers to load between £1 and £3,000 in either euros or dollars.

The Lloyds TSB card can then be topped up to the tune of £50 when needed to a maximum of £3,000.

If the card happens to be stolen, it can be replaced and the money reimbursed, allowing holidaymakers the opportunity to recharge their batteries in peace.
