Keep money safe when you travel

Planning to go for a holiday this year end? Play it safe when you travel – here’s five quick tips for looking after your money while on holiday.

- Don’t have all your money, cards and ID in one place.

- Do take out only as much cash as you need for the day,
   and spread it around your person: in a money belt,
   a neck pouch inside your clothes, in hard-to-access pockets.

- Don’t flash your wallet around, especially in busy places.

- Do carry your wallet or purse in the front pocket of your trousers: it’s
  almost impossible for a pickpocket to steal it from there.

- Do leave the rest of your cash at your hotel in a safebox. If there’s no safe,
  lock your cash in a suitcase.
