I remember hearing the NYT’s Matt Gross a/k/a “The Frugal Traveler” a/k/a Moby’s traveling doppelganger mention this ridiculously amazing travel advice during a talk last Fall: if you like being nailed $5 for every cash withdrawal you make abroad and paying exorbitant special interest rates for international purchases, don’t change your bank. But if you want to pay zip each time you hit the ATM or when you pay with plastic, then switch over to Capital One, the only major bank in the world that has this deal. Man, there are some smart people over at the Times.
