Whether they are at the top of the Eiffel Tower or in the middle of the American Rockies, Brits can now stay in control of their holiday finances anywhere they can use their mobile phone.
FairFX.com has launched an innovative and unique new way for Brits abroad to check their balance, confirm the exchange rate and top-up their holiday money - all by text.
Commenting on the launch, Stephen Heath, Chief Executive of FairFX.com, said:

they have left to spend, check the exchange rate they will get for
their Pounds, and top-up their holiday money simply by texting. This is
the easiest way for people to manage their money abroad, and until
August 31st the service will be free of charge."
