I need to open a new bank account and someone on here said one bank didn't charge for transactions made in Europe - I'd be grateful if you could let me know so I can factor this in to my decision ...

You need a Nationwide flex account, and you can do all your banking on line with them, like their adverts say - they give an excellent service. Travellers' cheques are a thing of the past, certainly outside the US, and far more trouble than they are worth.

"Liverpool and Victoria credit card for Euros" don't you have to pay interest on this type of transaction, ? I usually use the village PO, help keep them in business.

I use nationwide and also get a better exchange rate than with other cards for transactions on the same day

For a credit card the Post Office is now one to consider for use abroad:

From the Post Office web site 'commission free card use abroad'. Application can be made on line.
