I never had any luck with exchanging currency while abroad. To be honest, I always thought more of work than this sort of thing, but it seems that I will have to take extra care, since my I was told by my boss to cut on foreign exchange fees. Whats the best card for foreign exchange? I really do not want to have another conversation with my boss regarding this subject.

I have been using Visa CC, offered to me by my credit union, and they told me that currency conversion fee is 0. Yet, I was still charged with 1. When I asked my credit union, about that, they said that it has nothing to do with them; Visa itself is charging these transactions. I even managed to get that 1, since I said that there was no information regarding that hidden fee. As far as I know that fee could go up to 3 in some cases. For now, Ill stick to my Visa.
