I have finally got round to checking whether the card transfer looks worthwhile, which I did through online banking. I did not go any further when I reached the point where it said that because my card is not in euros there would be a 3% charge and it showed an exchange rate of 1.042 euro to the pound as against 1.09 elsewhere. Am I missing something because this does not appear to be the same deal as Ron Hill was talking about?

No it doesn't look the same deal though I've not tried it since I first posted this ans was only trying out of interest as I normally use TransferWise or Smart Currency Exch. when I tried Sadell at that time it accepted my in card and gave me an exchange rate about the same as those I mentioned above. However when it got to the end it said there would be a 10 euro flat fee no mention of a % surcharge but also said it couldn't complete the transaction due to an error and took me back to the start screen. As I said I was just trying out of interest and wondered if anyone had actually made a transfer. They may have changed the system since I tried it out though
