Any experience using Bluebird in foreign ATMs?

From what I understand, BB does not charge the dreaded FTF. I am just now up and running with BB and would like to use it to withdraw cash overseas. I would like to hear of any successes/problems from anyone who has used it for this purpose.

I have been using a Capital One debit card for several years for this purpose. I earn a few measly points on it per month because I keep a low balance. But they have been very reliable and I have never been charged the dreaded foreign transaction fee.

Since I have other uses for Bluebird it would be convenient to use this as my go-to overseas ATM card and mix up my BB use a little.
