I'm in Laos backpacking and my credit card has stopped working. Not able to withdraw money. Which leaves me in a very bad situation. I rang halifax helpline only to be put through 5 different departments.

Then after 20 min of getting nowhere the lady said my only option was to trust a stranger and transfer them money whilst they Withdraw the money from a cash point.....

Also the voice recognition does not work.

From my experience i would advise not to use this company.

I now have to go the british embassy to sort this mess out.

Wish I could give 0 stars
