How can banks offer 0% transaction fee on international transfers (according to Flyerguide Wiki) if there is the 1% Visa fee?

Is it true that BofA charges 3% on foreign purchases?
Depends. There are now BofA credit cards that don't charge any forex fee. My BofA debit card tacks on a 2% fee. I have a BofA World Perks Amex that has a 1% fee. Some of their basic MasterCards and Visas have a 3% fee.
