Yes, that's feasible. But has anyone confirmed for certain that foreign spend attracts the x10 bonus? Lloyds seem confused and make contradictory statements. I still don't know whether "10 times eligible spend" means:

10 x 1.25 per £ for UK spend plus 10 x 2.5 for foreign spend;

or

10 x 1.25 per £ for all spend, UK and non-UK;

or even (aagh)

10 x 1.25 per £ on UK spend alone, with foreign spend attracting only the basic 2.5 per £.

It's a mess, and the lack of clarity is more than frustrating because it impacts on one's spending strategy.
