re: exchange rate

I used a nationwide flex account card in Spain last weekend (for the first time), but the rate I got was worse than say Travelex.

You are supposed to get the Visa Exchange rate which was at the time €1.33, but somehow I only got €1.2965 !

Unless I was really unlucky and found a bank that charged me to use their cash point, I am left somewhat sceptical about this card !

I got one as I am off to Borovets next month and thought this would be a good way to get cash out.

Also Nationwide (up until now) haven’t showed on the internet statement what exchange rate I got !!

What banks do people use in Borovets ?
If I take my card I would like use a bank which doesn’t charge me a handling fee !
