The policy officially changed in December 2006 so you're no longer supposed to be charged for using Citi ATMs, but they have not implemented it very well and people I know (even Citigold and Citi Private Banking customers) continue to be charged fees even for using Citi-owned ATMs overseas. Citi is a gigantic network of fiefdoms that don't work particularly well together. Use their ATMs (and their ATM cards) at your own risk.
