People are talking about a Cap1 VISA a lot. I have a Cap1 Platinum No Hassle Rewards MasterCard. I assume that still is zero Forex fees, correct? Is there something better about the VISA?

And I just learned by reading the thread that Chase/British VISA is now zero Forex. Woohoo! I only have the 1mi/2$ card, because I switched to avoid the annual fee, but that card still will get me no Forex fee, right?

And will my Delta Platinum Amex get the No Forex fee when that changes, or is it only the generic Amex Platinum?

thanks for any re-education you can provide...

All the Cap One cards appear to convert at the same rates with no fees.
