The problem is banks tend to be more expensive when using it like that - they'll charge you a fee to convert the funds, use their own (worse) exchange rate and round up to the nearest pound to boot. It wasn't bad with the Doms 3 pre-order (though it was a Maestro by then), but I remember buying something for $20 (about £15 at the time) around 6 years ago with Switch, and finding that the cost including the bank's fees was somewhere in the region of £25.

Hrm, I wasn't able to when mine was still Switch. Maybe it was my specific type of account or something, but I always had to borrow a family member's credit card if I wanted to pay for anything in $ etc.
