BoA rates are practically the same as the exchange rate (well, using Google), so essentially there's no fee at all.
Yeah, I used Apple Pay almost everywhere in the UK as well (there were like 3-4 transactions at places that didn't support contactless). Not looking forward to going back to store clerks looking at me like I grew horns when I attempt to use contactless.

Funny enough, one of the only places that didn't support contactless actually tried to DCC me (Harrods). I had full control of the terminal, though, so it was easy to decline.
