I wont be stashing cash as I am backpacking, I don't want to have much money in the hostels.
I will try to use ANZ in Australia. I take it they are in New Zealand too and they are free with the Starling card? What cash machines don't normally charge in New Zealand?0 -
I used loads of ATMs in NZ and none charged. None even offered DCC.sherringham2001 wrote: »I wont be stashing cash as I am backpacking, I don't want to have much money in the hostels.
