Probably a terrible way. You would just make a Swift payment instead.

Forex is for converting cash.

Not so.
You get up to 50% back on the costs of Swift transfers.

Quick question with regarding the rule where you only have to use your credit card and not your cheque card. How do you guys fill up, doesn't fuel attract immediate interest? I always thought fuel is a special item that attracts immediate interest? Am i wrong here?

It may have been once, but now it's treated like any other purchase. No interest unless you miss a payment due date.
 
That moment you get your card back from the till lady at Checkers and you realise it's your Cheque card and not your credit card. Then look at your wallet and realise your wife switched the positions of where you usually keep your credit card. 2000 Reward points instantly gone. Sigh.

My card was renewed recently and I had the choice of choosing what it looks like. Made sure I chose one that looks different:

Sure of this? Does fuel no longer have immediate interest??

I am. I have been for several months.

The only additional fee i had this past cycle was a teller accidentally putting a transaction on through budget (which i have none). No interest charged however, and i only use my credit card.

I carry mine for cash@till ... it has been mentioned on this thread that you get charged interest from day-1 on cash withdrawals from the credit card

Someone else had a great tip - just transfer into your cellphone number eWallet and then withdraw from the ATM using a PIN.
That way you aren't limited to silly cash@till if you need money.

Indeed! But that incurs a separate fee ... which kind of defeats the purpose of paying an all-in-one monthly fee for my account. I do use eWallet in a push, but I hate it when I do.
Still ... if it's eWallet or RL4 (as opposed to RL5), I'll pick eWallet

yep R9.50 to use ewallet ,max amount is R3000.

Its cheaper to ewallet yourself then to withdraw R3000 from your own account lol
