HOLIDAYMAKERS who use Uber overseas have been warned that a new charge could see them shelling out more for trips.

From Thursday (February 27) Uber will add a conversion charge to bills when riders pay in their home currency while overseas.

AFP

Uber is set to introduce a new charge to overseas journeys from Thursday[/caption]

This means that if you pay for a trip in the US in British pounds the taxi app will add a 1.5% conversion fee to your bill.

So, if ride cost £10, £10.15 will be taken from your account.

And passengers could end up further out of pocket if the exchange rate used by the app is unfavourable.

But there is a way to avoid being caught out.

To check if you’ll be charged log into your settings and see if British pounds is set as your preferred currency for payments.

When abroad change this to the local currency and then use an overseas card or other fee-free payment method to settle your bill and avoid paying more than you need to.

When introduced on Thursday the change will only apply when in Canada, the US or any country using the euro, but it is expected to be rolled out across other areas.

Uber has said that he exchange rate it’s offering will be shown on trip receipts and has confirmed that no conversion charge will be added to tip payments.

Be aware that you will only be able to select the currency you wish to pay in when using on-demand rides such as UberX, UberXL, UberBlack and UberGreen.

With other rides, such as rentals and scheduled rides you won’t be able to select the currency you wish to pay in.

When travelling abroad it’s important to consider the best cards to use when making payments.

Last week a popular bank for spending abroad announced a change to fees ahead of summer and it’s good news for holidaymakers.

Credit and debit cards routinely add fees of almost 3% when used abroad, and ATM charges can be as much as 7.95% which would add £8 to a £100 withdrawal.

The best cards for overseas travel have no fees at all so it’s worth comparing your options to get the best deal.

Remember to always opt to pay in local currency, as paying in sterling usually means getting a dismal rate from the merchant you are buying from.

You may also want to consider that credit cards can offer you extra protections when spending abroad if things go wrong, but make sure to pay off the bill in full to avoid interest.

VILLAGERS have been left fuming after one neighbour built a giant metal gate and hired security guards to block a shared forest path.

Locals in Cwmparc in Rhondda Valley, South Wales, banded together to protest against the barrier which blocks the route to a beauty spot mountain that hat been used “for generations”.

David Williams, 49, organised a protest against the gates on Sunday, saying it would be ‘awful’ if locals could no longer use it[/caption]

The neighbour hired security guards to stand by the gate[/caption]

The beloved route is not an official right of way but is described as a “crucial” path to the stunning forestry, beloved by the villagers in the area.

Even the British Mountaineering Council has weighed in on the debate, backing the protesters after their path was slammed shut by the giant black gates.

The path, which links a road to the forestry, is private property and was blocked off earlier this month after the homeowner erected a giant gate.

In addition to the protest, locals have also launched a petition against the block which has been supported by politicians.

Their protest at the weekend saw them brave horrific weather conditions in a bid to try and make their voices heard.

David Williams, 49, said: “The road has been used for access and enjoyment for 80 years I would say, if not longer.

“It will be awful if people can’t use it anymore.”

David had organised the protest on Sunday where more than 70 villagers came together in the pouring rain.

He explained that if there had been more time to arrange the protest, there would have been an even greater turnout.

David added that if the weather had been less foul, and if there had perhaps not been a weather warning, numbers would have also been higher.

However, the 49-year-old highlighted that despite these awful conditions and lack of timing, a solid number of protesters still turned out to try and protect their access to the path.

He said how he has lived in the area his whole life and that himself, his parents, grandparents, family and friends have always had access to the mountain.

The group’s petition has gained more than 3,000 signatures as locals call for the route to be designated as a right of way.

The British Mountaineering Council said: “For generations, this path has linked the village with surrounding woodlands and mountain trails, serving as a crucial route for recreation, mental well-being, and active travel.

“Now, a petition is underway to restore public access and safeguard the track for the future generations to come.

“The community was shocked when large gates were erected to block the pathway, despite its historical use.”

They added: “Residents initially reported and removed the barriers, only for the landowner to reinstate them – this time with CCTV cameras and hired security guards, clearly designed to intimidate those seeking to use this route.

“The alternative route forces locals to take a lengthy detour on high-traffic roads, making access to the trails impractical for many.”

A spokesperson for Natural Resources Wales said: “We are aware of an access issue to the forest road at Cwmparc.

“We’ve been contacted by a number of concerned people from the local community.

“We are currently looking into our legal position on this and will provide an update as soon as we have more information.”

A spokesperson for Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council confirmed that the road the gates were placed on is not a registered public right of way.

They said: “The gates are within permitted development heights and are on private land.”

BRAZIL icon Adriano’s 18-year-old son is making his own way in football after sealing a transfer to a European club.

Adriano Carvalho is still in his teens but is now looking to cement his status as a potential superstar.

Adriano Carvalho has signed for Portuguese club Academica de Coimbra[/caption]

The youngster has been playing in his native Brazil for Serrano since 2022.

But now he has penned a deal taking him to Portugal.

Adriano Carvalho has signed a contract with Academica de Coimbra.

They play in the third tier of Portuguese football.

And he is now hoping to emulate his dad’s success in Europe.

Adriano, 43, was considered to be the next big thing when he burst onto the scene with Flamengo in 2000.

After spells at Inter Milan and Fiorentina, he banged in 23 goals in just 18 months for Parma before rejoining Inter in 2004.

Adriano ended up scoring 83 goals in six years at the San Siro, while also winning three titles and two Italian Cups.

But fitness issues and the death of his father sparked a sharp decline in performances as Adriano’s star faded quickly while goals dried up.

The latter stages of his career took the striker to Sao Paulo, Flamengo, Roma, Corinthians, Atletico Paranaense and finally Miami United.

Adriano was one of the world’s most feared strikers at Inter Milan[/caption]

He also enjoyed success with Brazil[/caption]

Adriano, who retired in 2016, also played 48 times for Brazil. 

He netted 27 goals for his country while winning the Copa America in 2004.

Adriano admits he has been living a party lifestyle ever since and described himself as “football’s biggest waste” in November.

He said: “Do you know what it feels like to be a promise? I know. 

“Including an unfulfilled promise. Football’s biggest waste: Me. 

“I like that word, waste. Not only because of how it sounds, but because I’m obsessed with wasting my life.

“I’m fine like this, in frantic waste. I enjoy this stigma.”

AIR fryers have become an essential appliance in many UK kitchens.

Most households now own an air fryer[/caption]

The best air fryers can cook a wide range of delicious foods – not to mention save money at the same time.

But shoppers can also find affordable supermarket own-label versions starting from around £40.

More expensive versions – such as dual and stack models – tend to have more features and settings.

But all air fryers, regardless of the model, offer the functionality to cook and crisp food quickly without oil, helping keep mealtimes healthy.

If you are contemplating splashing out on a new air fryer but want to find the best value one for your needs, we have selected some of the best air fryer deals on the market – to help make your life easier.

What is an air fryer and how do they work?

An air fryer is a cooking appliance that functions like an over.

If you’re wondering how air fryers work, hot air is circulated inside which cooks food without needing oil (though you can use a little if you prefer).

Depending on the model, the appliance will feature an on/off control, time and temperature settings and often, a range of cooking functions.

These usually include air fry, roast and bake, but more expensive models may also offer steam, slow cook and dehydrate options, allowing you to create a wider range of dishes with different cooking times.

As well as the usual crispy chips you can cook in an air fryer, the handy appliance can also cook a variety of meat, fish and veg in a much healthier way.

They’re not just for savoury foods either, cakes, biscuits and desserts can all be cooked in an air fryer.

Size varies, from small appliances for one to capacious versions that easily feed 10 people, so choose the model that best suits your needs.

Linked to size of course is where you’re going to place your air fryer.

A large model takes up more room on the worktop (or in the cupboard if you’re going to store it away when not in use), so make sure you have enough space before buying.

How the air fryer opens is also important. Some have drawers that pull out, but some open from the top, which could pose a problem if you have wall cupboards above the kitchen counter.

Where to buy air fryers?

Air fryers are available from many popular online and high street retailers.

It’s best to check out brand websites if you’re after a specific model, as they often have extra deals you won’t find elsewhere.

Websites like Amazon and major department stores stock a variety of different air fryers, making it easier to find the best deals.

If you are on the hunt, we suggest starting with the following retailers:

• Amazon
• AO
• Argos
• Currys
• John Lewis
• Lakeland
• Ninja
• Robert Dyas
• Tefal
• Tower Housewares
• Very

Are supermarket brands as good as branded air fryers?

Supermarket own-brand air fryers should be as good as more famous names, however, they may not have as many functions.

That said, there will likely be price points to suit several budgets, from cheaper, basic models to more expensive versions with a wider range of features.

Many budget chains like Lidl and Aldi regularly release air fryer dupes of major brands that provide considerable savings.

A supermarket-branded air fryer is also a great way to try out the appliance without spending a fortune.

For instance, Asda is selling a compact air fryer with a 1.5L capacity for just £28.

Are air fryers worth the hype?

We are big fans of air fryers at The Sun, so we would say they are definitely worth the hype.

They’re economical to use, efficient and have dinner ready in a shorter time than a conventional oven does.

You don’t just have to use them for air frying either – though they do make the best chips – so you can get as creative as you wish.

Roasts, succulent fish, and tasty vegetables can all be cooked in an air fryer.

Those that combine extra features, such as slow cooking, baking and dehydrating, do the job of several appliances, saving space and money in the long run.

Are air fryers safe?

All electrical products have to meet stringent regulations before being sold in the UK – and this includes air fryers.

They are safe if used properly. Removable baskets and trays can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher (check the instructions for your particular model).

Avoid getting the machine itself wet though, and clean away food stains on the interior with a damp cloth only.

While you can use foil and baking parchment inside your air fryer, never leave them in there without food, as they could end up burning and causing a fire.

Always make sure your air fryer is placed on a solid surface that allows for adequate ventilation, so air can move around the appliance.

Avoid over-filling the drawer or tray otherwise, food may catch on the heated element, becoming a fire risk.

Safety information, as well as step-by-step details for the proper way to use your air fryer, will be contained in the manufacturer’s instruction guide for your appliance.

MANCHESTER UNITED fans lambasted the club chiefs’ decision to scrap free lunches at Old Trafford following a second round of brutal cuts since the arrival of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos.

Ratcliffe, 72, completed a minority takeover in 2023 and has since gained control over sporting operations at United, which led to some severe downsizing.

Last summer saw 250 staff made redundant in a heavy first wave to save costs under Sir Jim.

But the list of casualties is now set to increase by between 150 and 200 job cuts amid the club’s transformation plan, which includes axing free lunches.

SunSport exclusively revealed how lunches for all but the first team had been reduced to soup and sandwiches, and that included coaches and analysts, with a later report from The Guardian revealing the staff canteen was set to close altogether.

According to Sky News, ending free lunches for staff is estimated to be saving the club £1million a year.

Man Utd fans didn’t take well to the news as that poses as a small fee in the grand scheme of things.

The Red Devils faithful stormed social media to lash out against club bosses and that measure.

One fan tweeted: “This is just embarrassing.”

Another commented: “That’s a month of Mason Mount’s salary!”

A third wrote: “This club nah.”

This fan joked: “Problem solved then!”

And that one said: “Wohoo now we can sign [Kylian] Mbappe for 3 hours.”

United chiefs claim these cuts will help them invest in both the men’s and women’s football team.

An official statement read: “Manchester United is to transform its corporate structure as part of a series of additional measures to improve the club’s financial sustainability and enhance operational efficiency.

“The transformation plan aims to return the club to profitability after five consecutive years of losses since 2019.

“This will create a more solid financial platform from which the club can invest in men’s and women’s football success and improved infrastructure.

“As part of these measures, the club anticipates that approximately 150-200 jobs may be made redundant, subject to a consultation process with employees. These would be in addition to the 250 roles removed last year.”

Club chiefs aren’t planning on changing their donation of £40,000 per year to the Manchester United Disabled Supporters’ Association.

There are, however, talks over reducing funding for the Manchester United Foundation.
