I am not a huge fan of BofA, BUT they make it possible to withdraw money abroad without the extra fees, if you use the ATMs of the banks memebrs of the so-called Global ATM Alliance, which include
Barclays ( everywhere in the UK)
Bank of Nova Scotia
BNP (Everywhere in France)
Deutsche Bank ( everywhere in Germany)
Westpac ( Austral and NZ)
A little research can go a long way in going to the right ATM.
Otherwise, it's $5.00
