Posted by Kathy (Houston, TX) on 04/07/16 11:26 PM. I just opened a Capital One 360 Checking Account because I read on this forum that it had some of the lowest fees for traveling in Europe and for a second debit card. When checking locations for their ATM's (Allpoint) in Italy, it appears that there are none.
Capital One 360 debit card is a Mastercard, so no worries, it's accepted most everywhere on Earth. Let them know your travel dates and the countries you will be visiting before you leave home. Happy travels! Yeah, it will be accepted everywhere in Europe - doesn't need to be a specific ATM.

(for the past two years) The website thetrainline.com (same as thetrainline.eu) worked. They had the exact same schedules and prices as the national train websites (Germany, Spain, etc.).
Capital One ATM cards. A few years ago Bank of America added a 3% "foreign transaction fee" for using their ATM card at member banks in Europe, e.g. Deutsche Bank, in Germany. There is still no fee from Deutsche Bank or Bank of Am. to use the those ATMs and the rate is still the best you can get. But the 3% fee still bugs me.

Hi-Yield Money Market which morphed into the 360, and their credit card- initially it was a card with 1.25% cash back, switched to the 1.5% cash back card sometime before the pandemic. We've yet to ahve any problems.
I second the use of using a Capital One credit card for purchases since there are no foreign exchange fees tacked on to the transaction. My primary bank is PNC but they charge an ATM fee as well as a 3% foreign exchange fee on ATM withdrawals from overseas banks. To avoid this, I opened a checking account at Capital One bank.
Capital One ATMs. We are planning a three week vacation in September that will include small parts of Switzerland, Italy, and France. Rick's books recommend one alternative for getting cash from ATMs is to use Capital One. However, in talking to Capital One, I was told that they use a network of ATMs in Europe called "All Point".
I have a Capital One Debit Card that I just use in ATM's that I got over 10 years ago to use in Europe. It is tied to a Cap One Directing Banking account that is technically a savings account. I have used it on over five trips to Europe and it worked fine. I see where in one of Rick's latest guidebooks he says that ATM's in Europe with only ...
Robert's point is important. There are two possible fees when using a US debit card at a foreign ATM. One is the flat "per withdrawal" fee, and the other is the percentage "foreign exchange" fee. A Bank of American card has both - $5 plus 3% for every withdrawal. Using a partner bank saves you the $5, but not the 3%.
Yes, no bank would be willing to do this, and if they did, the fee would be hidden somewhere. Do what Norma said: get cash from an ATM as soon as you get there and you'll be in good shape. Open a checking account at a bank that will charge you the 1% and a minimal withdrawal fee. Most credit unions work like this. Or try Capital One bank.
