I will be travelling around South America later this year for 5 months and want to know how much will I have to pay to use my debit card abroad? Barclays’ cards have always worked for me in Europe and not charged so much but as I am travelling for a longer period of time now I want to make sure that I won’t be paying a fortune just to use my card abroad. I mean I know it costs more to take money out and I will be hoping to use traveller’s cheques but if I need to use my card in shops etc will I pay a lot?

You shouldn’t pay anything when using your card in a shop. The numbers you see on your statement should simply be the conversion of the currency in question in to Pounds.  But the details of how much you pay when withdrawing money can be found here http://www.personal.barclays.co.uk/BRC1/jsp/brccontrol?site=pfs&task=homefreegroup&value=12623
