Curve Card abroad – upgrade to Black?

[Indy500]

‘morning

I have Blue version which works well abroad linked to the Barclaycard Avios. The total transcation limit is adequate for a week in the Canaries but we’re in the USA for 3 weeks later in April/May. So I’m upgrading to Black which should cover it. I still have to avoid the weekends but if I upgrade to Black and pay monthly, can I just drop back down to free Blue in a couple of months? The Curve website CS is woeful so I thought I’d see if HFP readers know?

I think you have to keep it for 6 months before downgrading?

My memory is a bit hazy, but I’m sure I downgraded after about 4 months.I upgraded to tide us over a travel period , and once home reverted back without any issues.

Black at £9.99/month has a minimum six month term as does Metal.

I had issues where it kept logging me out abroad, very annoying.
