And several of us have done foreign purchases on the new BOA branded cards without incurring any fees.
Never bothered to activate the new BoA card. As soon as the Schwab %2 deal ended, I went for the Capitalone Business Spark card with %2 Cashback and %0 forex.

Even got a $150 signup bonus from Cap1 for the Spark. Very happy with them. Now just waiting for them to bring back their Match your Miles Promo...

This is my only travel card.
