In Reply to: Bali ATM Surcharge? posted by boston_to_bali on Thursday, 11. November 2004 at 10:40 Bali Time:
It's not so much that the ATMs charging fees... It's more your local bank charging you cash advance fees when withdrawing using the credit feature. Also charging currency conversion fees (1.5%) on top of poorer exchange rates than you can get on the street in Bali. With my bank, they skim little bits a number of times and I'm sick of it.
I'm out to find the mecca of financial instituations for the traveller.
