ebs debit card

I'm very happy with this card. I have used it online on lots of websites and they don't charge a fee for currency conversions.

Are you sure about the statement that there is no fee for currency conversion because according to their T&E there is a 1% of the amount of the transaction (minimum €0.30, maximum €6.00)?

Well maybe I'm wrong. I havent used it in a non Euro ATM yet, but for non Euro Point of Sale, there have been no charges, like this example:

04/08/2011Point Of Sale - Thorntons Plc
Ref 55504431215216247479848 4.50 BP @ Rate of 0.870406 Charge 0.00 EUR 5.17

"Additional conditions in relation to account closure apply which will be advised to you at the relevant time."

Surely your entitled to know these conditions before opening the account.

Surely EBS should be updating information on a more regular basis - February 2012 is over 2 years ago.

"Information correct as of 20/07/2012."

It's May 2014 - review the information and update the date - it does not inspire confidence in my opinion in the institution.
