| It was around that time Barb n I decided to get £5000 of €s @1.575 as it was a better deal than having the money in the bank, took a couple of years to get rid of it and now it so low it ain't worth the hassle getting large amounts. | |

| So frustrating I tried to load my card and discoverd it had expired so I have to wait for a new one before I can load it perhaps it will be to my advantage if the rate goes up.  | |

| My debit card that is registered for topping up had expired, lucky I discovered today as topping up by text would be impossible. I bought €230 for £180 Wife says to buy more tomorrow!
How did your Caxton expire without them sending a new one? Mine expires end of June I'd better keep an eye on it | |

| From website FAQ "
What happens when my Caxton FX card expires?Your card will be valid for three years. When it expires we will issue you with a replacement card only if you let us know one is required. You will be contacted by email at your registered email address one month before expiry and you will be required to re-confirm your details and which replacement cards you require." | |

| yes i know that andy but its a good guide and i use this to keep my eye on the market and then check caxton rates. Rate was up to 1.32 first thing but dropped a bit so expect caxton to drop the rate also. That 1.2920 is the best i have seen since i have had the card by the way. (2 years) | |

| I have gone onto Caxton site and it all seems to have changed and I can no longer find what the exchange rate is. There is no 'search' facility.
Where are you guys getting this info from? | |

| €1.55 is going back to the old days when the highest I ever got was €1.56 but even if it does go that high the prices in €land have increased so we will not actually get more bucks for € if you see what I mean.
