The difference here is: I can only get access, if I am on this process, to 20 per cent of my money, and I could well have, particularly if I am travelling, already accessed that money. The point is: I cannot get any cash, even though I may have cash in the bank. How do you deal with that? This is a completely different situation if I have got 80 per cent of my money that I cannot access in cash.
