Shares in the holiday firm thomas cook plunge in value as it is confirmed that it is seeking a rescue deal from its chinese partner. The worlds oldest travel agent thomas cook is in talks to secure a 750 milion pound rescue deal to help it keep trading and reinvent itself for a future in which consumers dont need travel agents as much as they once did. Well hearing from the boss in a moment. Theres been a warning today that fire prone tumble dryers which had been recalled by the manufacturer are still being sold by Third Party Vendors on online marketplaces. The Charity Electrical Safety First is alerting consumers to the risk of buying these products and urging websites to do more to prevent them being listed for sale.

So what can holidaymakers do about it . Alana parsons is a travel money expert, what kind of a difference is this going to make to peoples holidays . The first thing they will notice is that it the first thing they will notice is thatitis the first thing they will notice is that it is way more expensive now, oi that it is way more expensive now, or it can be, depending where you go. Particularly if youre heading to mainland europe or estates, is a Significant Impact compared to where we had seen it even four months ago. When we talk about the pound, we often benchmark it against the dollar, the latest price is around 1. 25. That is the wholesale rate, the rate banks charge each other. As consumers dont get that but do the Foreign Exchange bureaus usually work in lockstep with the wholesale market . Bureaus are actually what we would say you need to avoid. They can take anything from five to 10 on that wholesale rate. You are better off looking at currency specialists and currency cards where you will get much closer to the actual wholesale rate, if not the wholesale rate. I never buy travel money, ijust use my debit card or credit card and i am careful to make sure the cards i use have no excess fees or anything like that. Is that a better way of all, does away with the nuisance of having to go to a shop . Im a deputy recommend that you take a currency card and you have to be careful about which one you take because they dont all have zero fees, some can charge astronomical charges and you often would not notice until he came back and checked your statement but there are specialist cards out there that are specialist cards out there that are designed for travel.

With brexit and the political uncertainty, the best thing to do is to get some currency 110w thing to do is to get some currency now and some closer to the time and then that way, if it goes up, you dont have to feel so bad because youve taken dont have to feel so bad because youve ta ken advantage dont have to feel so bad because youve taken advantage of it at the later stage and if it doesnt, you can be happy in the fact that you know youve already got some of the rate is now.
