Fees often overlooked, says Santander credit cards

A Santander credit cards representative has suggested that travellers often do not pay attention to the fees that are charged by providers when a transaction is made overseas.

Emma Roberts, director of cards at the company, explained that a total of £49 million could be spent by Brits heading abroad this summer just on the levies imposed on them by financial institutions.

She noted that such fees often get overlooked by individuals, but added that Santander credit cards does offer a product that allows foreign usage without any extra payment required.

"Holidaymakers should make sure they pack a card that doesn't charge them for making purchases abroad, such as the popular Santander Zero Credit Card," remarked Ms Roberts.

Her comments were made after the firm revealed that the average spending money budget for Brits this summer has increased to £350 per week, up from £274 last year.

Last month, Santander revealed that many people are embracing the 'age of austerity' and have already begun shopping around to get the cheapest deals on groceries and other items.
