Hi All.

With ref to the Nationwide rate, you will not get a better rate. The rate that the Nationwide offers on its Visa and Debit cards are the FULL bank rate, not the usual rate you would get through the likes of the post office. Also, unlike other cards they do not charge a conversion fee ! ( usually £2 - £3 )

All you require is a current account with them and if you use the online banking, it enables you to transfer money from different accounts ( Nationwide accounts ) to cover any payments. It is great for going abroad and saves a lot of money in charges.
