Has anyone had experience of using one of these when travelling abroad?

Going to Turkey for my hols in a few months and was looking at using this rather than travellers cheques/credit card

Not used it personally, but it got an OK review on lovemoney.com

and an article here:

Although, Turkey doesn`t use the Euro, so you might still be charged when they convert from the local (Lira) back to Euros. Caxton do say they give the best exchange rate though.

Cheers
