Euro

The pound has dropped following yesterday's general election, as a hung Parliament causes uncertainty on the currency markets. And with summer holidays on the horizon, many are asking if they should be buying travel cash now.

Currency bureau Travelex has continued to accept applications from new customers for its Supercard, despite the fact that a technical glitch has meant that delivery of the travel cards has been suspended. If you don't want to wait for your Supercard, there are rival cards available offering similar exchange rates.

I've been swamped with holiday money questions on Twitter, Facebook and while out filming roadshows for my new TV series. From Andy's "Will the rate improve in Aug or shall I get euros now?" to Alice's "Booked honeymoon in euros, already lost £200 - should I wait to pay rest?" and many more.

The deadline to register for a vote in the EU referendum has been extended to 11.59pm on Thursday (9 June) after technical problems with the Government's website meant some people missed the original deadline.

Anyone who wants to have their say in the EU referendum on 23 June who hasn't already registered to vote must do so by the end of the day on 7 June to vote in person.

The pound's hit it's best rate against the euro for eight years, meaning holidaymakers tripping to Europe find it far cheaper than in recent memory. Currently it's hovering around £1 buys €1.43 - €1.44, a year ago it would've bought you just €1.24.
