according to FatWallet post, it is going to be 3% for a non-citi atm. considering there are only 10 in colombia for example, i am not sure this is anything worth celebrating (how much $$ is it going to cost to taxi a taxi to the atm? and the aggravation on top of that?)

It said that starting Dec 02 2006 or so, Blue Citibank ATM cards would have no fee when used at Citibank ATMs overseas, but 3% fee when used at other banks' ATMs. According to her, Gold ATM cards would remain the same, which would not make sense since they're 1% at Citi ATMs.

I called CitiGold customer service the day before and they were not aware of any changes on foreign currency transaction fees.
