"Cash Charge" from using Travelex

Went through the BA website to Travelex due to the 1000 bonus miles if you exchange £50 or more into a different currency. Used my Lloyds TSB debit card as a credit card would treat it like a cash withdrawal.
Just checked my account using online banking and there's a £4.50 "cash charge". Why exactly have I been charged £4.50 for a sterling transaction?
