UK banks are not a competitive source for currency Bureaux de change knock spots off them
Comment from : @rickyg7579

This advice is not the best I have traveled to over 70 countries Each country is different For intance, the best exchange rates for Mexico is at the Mexico City airport Using your local bank is the most expensive since they tack on big fees The best advice that she gave is a no foreign transaction fee credit card, except for countries that have dual exchange rates In countries with dual exchange rates, the ATM, credit card, or any official exchange house gives the worst rate In those dual exhange rate countries, taking cash and exchanging it with local people will give you more than twice your money This was true for the last four years in Argentina

Comment from : @Ishosmart

Credit cards with “no foreign transaction” fees does not mean the bank does not charge you other fees So far the best travel card I have ever used is the Wise card Extremely low rates, can store over 40 currencies, can withdraw from local ATM with some no Fay per month On one trip I saved over $300 as compared to my banks “no FX” fees

Nora I don't know if your credit card does not charge cash advance fees, but every one of my credit cards do I found the best way to get foreign currency at ATMs is to use any of my debit cards that do not charge foreign exchange fees, and they do not charge cash advance fees either

My bank is one of the largest banks in the US and it has absolutely terrible exchange rates IIRC, the last time I asked, they only gave about 85-90 of the daily currency rate at the time

A few years ago we had a long layover in London, and I just needed a few pounds to tide me over until we left the following morning I went to the currency exchange kiosk in Heathrow (first mistake) Being jet lagged and in a hurry, I wasn’t at the top of my game The young woman asked me if I wanted a printed receipt or to have it emailed, I chose email (second mistake) I didn’t count the money while I was there (we were waiting for a bus to the hotel) and it wasn’t until later that I realized I’d been short changed, and of course no email receipt ever arrived Learned my lesson

I have Russian currency I am in USA how do I get rid of it in 2024?
Comment from : @skinnybitchbackbreaker5215

The kiosks aren't so bad in Poland especially if you start with dollars or euros

Comment from : @Aa1a1a1

What credit card do you recommend?
Comment from : @hilaryquinn8673

Would it be better to exchange money in Banks around Tbilisi? Are banks more reliable than kiosks in Tbilisi? What are the pros and cons of exchanging currency in banks around Tbilisi?
Comment from : @dcanadian000

Hi nora, im traveling to Guatemalan in a week it will be my first time on a plane😂 i dont know what to do on exchanging US dollars to Quetzales any advice will be greatly appreciated and how can i find the ATM
Comment from : @itfpascual

Like your necklace Do you have any advice for cashing a Canadian dollar cheque in a US bank account without incurring a bank commission on the exchange rate, and further, a hold on your deposit? Thank you
Comment from : @rich2376

The 3 credit card is a low markup in the planet of the foreign exchange One ATM markup in Mexico I had recently was 7, plus 30 pesos, plus my local bank charged me 5 $ You better read carefully the ATM receipt and your bank report For the no FX markup credit card, you would have to pay big monthly fees I believe As for ordering from my local bank: markup of 6 (hidden) Better take you calculator! (and know the mid-market exchange rate)
Comment from : @gabva9575

Such an amazing video! Thank you!!!
Comment from : @josephanglim5709

In most Asia countries, ATM rates are worse than cash to cash exchange rates plus higher ATM fees
Comment from : @mongulkhanaxe6639

Great to know…thanks!🛬💥😎
Comment from : @patlsmith404

Question in the Philippines at the airport there about 10 bank booths all slightly up and down rates but everyone’s telling to cash there it’s the safest the bank on the streets are difficult sometimes what’s your opinion to late for my bank
Comment from : @papabear007

Nice job, Nora Thanks
Comment from : @marvogrady9728

So glad I found out about the Schwab debit card for avoiding all ATM fees
Comment from : @markcouch4235

Went to my bank and they are charging 115 to convert USD to Euro Quite steep mark up of almost 20 Going to try the ATM at the banks once in europe
Comment from : @Danny742

What about debit card for holland? From UK?
Comment from : @Circle_of_pain_666

I travel to Italy ever year so when possible, I use the bancomat, (ATM) attached to a local Post Office They don't impose any fees or foreign transactions
Comment from : @pattygoetz928

I'm Cdn as well Can you suggest a good CC for no FX transaction fees?
Comment from : @davearchbell9921

Nora, do you have a video on good Hotels to visit when going to Florida (or USA in general)?
Comment from : @Neocharm

HelpI'm ignorant Am I accepting the local business exchange rate when I use an American Debit card abroad?
Comment from : @andrewallen8764

I haven’t traveled internationally very often but we always got money from an ATM at the airport simply so we would have cash to pay the cab driver I am going to Switzerland next month and am curious how to get around this problem
Comment from : @mswhizz56

Do bank ATMs at airports function the same as those in the city? Just trying to make the best decision possible Thx brPS Love your videos I’m more confident now than I was a few weeks ago about my upcoming trip
Comment from : @kitkat5339

I disagree with you on some points When in Rome, I visited the exchange houses around the plazas and received the best rates In Peru, we actually searched for exchangers that carry their currency all the time and we bargain the exchange rate They are called “cambistas” So it really depends on which country you are visiting
Comment from : @mariareyes-ku6194

Good tips I once exchanged many USA dollars under a stairwell in a mall in Russia 1996 A big guy in a black leather coat who had many, many rubles

Comment from : @The-Cat

Your VLOG on ATM machines is the best video I have ever seen on this subject Job well done !
Comment from : @tompaulathesenioritinerant367

I don't believe you recommended a few good cards to use at the ATMs Geeee,, I can't believe I even need to mention this Thankyou for the information you did send out but that card info is super important wouldn't you say? 😮
Comment from : @r3r7commission

Wonder if you have heard of the Wise international debit card? You can load up to 50 currencies on the one card and they offer the mid market rate at the time you convert …I find it fantastic for Europe, Australia , Bali etc
Comment from : @sarav9350

they call it an international credit card too
Comment from : @gerrydunne8768

Cannot emphasize how important your tip is about not leaving your destination with lots of foreign currency More than 20 years ago, I ended up having to drive 5 hours to an AIRPORT because it was the closest place that could exchange my thousand Euros for Dollars in under a month The insult of the horrific exchange rate plus the drive convinced me - never again
Comment from : @xaviotesharris891

Thank you very much for this very informative video!
Comment from : @Pouncer_Fox

Comment from : @sabineedelmann6531

Comment from : @pandabear4014

Hey Nora, brMy wife and I are going to Portugal & Madera in a month (We are only stay 10 days) brWe’re debating on which method to use Exchange before we go or ATM, Or a combination
Comment from : @1215cheshire

How do you know ahead of time if your CC charges a foreign exchange rate? And if your bank hides it, how do you know? Thanks
