Angry Wells Fargo foreign ATM alert

I have been travelling a lot over the last couple 2 months and have Wells Fargo ATM card. It has worked all over the place in the past, but in the last 2 months I tried using my ATM card in Korea, Spain, and the UK with no success. The card works fine when I am in the US and as a credit card. I called Wells Fargo customer service today and asked if I was doing something wrong. Their answer was that the card was fine, but that there was something wrong with the network. That they were aware there were issues with withdrawing from foreign ATMs. I asked when it would be fixed and they said they had no timeframe. Of course they didnt tell anyone this.

So another friend tried and was unsuccessful as well, but his Citibank did work. I was wondering:

Has anyone been successful in using a Wells Fargo ATM card in a Foreign location and if so where?

Dont you think Wells Fargo should notify customer when they are having problems with the international ATM network, especially since they emphasize how using an ATM in another country is better than taking travellers cheques.
