British holidaymakers have lost around £200 to date on unexpected travel costs – such as currency conversion fees (35%), and city taxes (27%).
Other ways Brits have been stung whilst travelling include unanticipated baggage or accommodation costs, being charged to use a cash machine, or overpaying for excursions that could have been booked for cheaper elsewhere.
But one of the top costs Brits have been caught out by is data roaming charges (31%) – with 32% having found out the hard way, after forgetting to turn their data roaming off whilst abroad.
