Often it's the best rate (by far).

tb
I've found that using Cirrus/Maestro, whatever the network is, it's charged a currency conversion fee of about 3%. I haven't tried using it as a credit card.

It seems to be the best option here, but less good than the cash options in places like Malaysia or Taiwan. Just thought I'd check.

Thanks.
