Another cash query

I have just read your thread re. American Express TC for two.
Is this a special arrangement as I have just bought my TC`s.

You can request these when you purchase your TC's. It means either can sign, and is very convenient, especially if you are likely to be separated, and still want to spend them.

You can only purchase AmEx travellers' cheques for two by visiting an AmEx travel store (there's one in most major cities).

If there is more than one adult in your party, these are a good idea in case of illness or someone wanting to go off and do their own shopping, etc or in an emergency, otherwise you're left with just one person who can sign travellers' cheques - if they're away or ill or something, then no-one can access any money without that one person's signature.

We used to get them in case there was some emergency and I couldn't sign the cheques for some reason - the circumstances now no longer apply for me but I think I've still got some.

remember you will probably need a credit card to leave an imprint when you rent your car, even if it is already paid for. Also some hotels will only let you check in if you leave a credit card imprint.
