Next week im planning on paying a hotel in Germany directly from my bank account as it works out about 50Euros cheaper than going through expedia/bookings.com.
Does anyone know the charge/fee Lloyds TSB charge on me making a direct euro payment from my current bank account? I can't see anything on their website.
thanks.

Do you mean you will be making the payment via online/telephone banking?? If so I think a £20 fee applies to international payments up to £5,000.
Transactions abroad Charges
Cash withdrawals and purchases. The amount is converted to sterling on the day it is processed by Visa using the exchange rate set by Visa plus a 2.99% foreign exchange fee.
Cash withdrawals are also subject to: Debit cards: 1.5% of the amount with a minimum transaction charge of £2.00 and a maximum charge for each transaction of £4.50.
Cashpoint® cards: 1.5% of the amount with a minimum transaction charge of £1.50. Please note: there is no maximum transaction fee.
When making purchases (not cash withdrawals) abroad, online, or on the phone, in a currency other than sterling, the transaction is also subject to: A £1 charge for each transaction except where a Platinum Debit card or a Premier Debit card has been used.
If you scroll down to the bottom there is information on other international charges.
