I have a US-issued Citibank ATM card and I usually stick it into a Maybank ATM (which are quite ubiquitous) and out comes Malaysian Ringgit The rate that I've been getting for the past few years (since the MYR was pegged at 3.8 to the USD) is the official 3.8 rate plus 1%. Eg. A withdrawl of MYR300 shows up as US$79.78 on my Citibank statement.
