hi

I have a KEB ATM DEBIT card, international or whatever.

Has anyone used this to purchase things over seas? Does KEB charge you a forign transaction fee for doing so?

I am trying to figure out the cheapest way to send money home. I am thinking of doing the travlers check in the mail trick, but, my mom owns a buisness and for 2% (her visa fee) I can just have her run my debit card to her account. This will then give me the days actual Visa exchange rate + a 2% charge.. which is cheaper than using KEB and my bank at home....

if I havent lost you yet....

Does KEB give you a charge for using your card in another country? I have a credit card that gives me a nice little charge everytime I use it for something thats not in the US...

any idea?

thanks!
