Does anyone know if RBS charge in Ireland for taking money out at Ulster Bank cash machines?

I have used my RBS debit card in Ireland, but cant seem to find the charge for taking money out whilst abroad....

i took out 20euros at an ulster bank cash machine (part of RBS, same logo) and the sterling value is £18.25...does this sound about right??

    Their normal foreign transaction charges are shown here - http://www.rbs.co.uk/personal/current-accounts/g2/debit-cards/card-abroad.ashx#tabs=section2

    Impossible to answer as the rate changes frequently and you don't say when the transaction took place.

    If I withdrew €20 with my Nationwide Debit Card (no charges) today, it would cost £18.08; had I withdrawn the same amount on 5th September last, it would have cost £17.48.

    Withdrawing €20 from any ATM would have cost £17.84 on that date, using a Nationwide Debit Card.
