Can anyone find me a prepaid travel card with no abroad ATM charges?

Hi

After days of searching I'm confused.

I am after a prepaid travel card that I can get in gbp as going to turkey but I would like one with no ATM charges as that is what I will be using it for.

Is there such a thing?

Thanks
Kelly x

    Caxton FX card

    You mean apart from the 'hidden' 2.99% charge?

    Here is your original thread, in case you couldn't find it. Just a few days old.

    You have suggested the kalixa card which charges £2.25 for ATM withdrawals?

    I'm after one that doesn't charge!

    And I'm sorry for starting a new thread but I'm asking a different question so there is no need to be so rude.

    It's exactly the same question, so no need to be so dopey. :D

    Try not to be so sensitive.

    Do you really expect there will be a Prepaid card with no charges at all?

    How old are you? Were you born yesterday? ;)

    You began with two choices, one charging 1.85% and the other 2.99%.

    I added Kalixa Pay for if you were likely to make purchases, for which it charges nothing at all.
    For International ATM withdrawals; Withdraw the equiv. of £100, that is 2.25% £150; 1.875% and so on.

    If no purchases and smaller withdrawals, stick with ICE.

    I know that there will not be a card with no charges whatsoever I was just asking if there was one that didn't charge for ATM withdrawals abroad!
    I'm sensitive and dopey?,well maybe you should try not to be so abrupt and patronising

    I was asking a couple of simple questions on a subject I am not familiar with.

    What help was that? You started a new thread, so the person trying to help you had no idea that you already had a card in mind that doesn't charge for ATM withdrawals. One with lesser charges than Caxton.

    That's what happens when you start a new thread for exactly the same question. People don't know of the information that has already been imparted.

    Now, put the toys back in to the pram and prepare to enjoy your trip, rather than agonising over nothing.
