I still use it occasionally, depite their dropping the CDW coverage some years ago. However, on a recent trip to the UK, I booked a Hertz car rental through Auto Europe, a US company that I’ve used for decades and think very highly of. Both the original booking and the top-up payment at the end were in Canadian dollars and charged to my Home Trust card. Auto Europe bookings are made through autoeurope.ca. Despite that, Home Trust refused to give me the 1% Cash Back. They also refuse to give Cash Back on charitable donations charged to the card. Just thought you might like to know.f

Hehe, I knew these kind of people. Just negative to all new ideas.. How do you trust Uber to take a taxi? How do you know driver is not scammer and bring to you forest and kiss? We are not living in the wild-wild-west anymore. Airbnb, foodpanda, tool share, There are trust based P2P operations already. Are you aware yet?

for real P2P i dont think apple has approved any. i guess they are waiting to be proven by thousands of users before they allow, just like airbnb or uber. I guess winngie Exchange or if there is another one will be available in IOS after they become popular.

Hi Berry
Its already Cash.
you change cash with real people. Not any crypto. For ex. you arrive to airport you open the app, search for people around you who wants to sell or buy cross currencies they will appear on map, you can send message and meet anywhere proper change the money by hand. generally uber drivers around airport or gift shops or other tourist who gonna leave the city back available for that.

Alex,

Interesting comment about apps, but how do you convert that money to cash?
