when we have traveled in the past, we used our td bank card to avoid fees on atm withdrawals.  I read that TD bank is discontinuing this feature.

What bank in the US should I use to avoid fees in the near future?

thanks in advance

https://www.schwab.com/checking reimbursement for ATM fees, no foreign transaction fees, and usually the best exchange rates.

As far as we know, yes.
It's a niche benefit that draws a tiny amount of customers, and costs the banks money... be happy we have it at all!.

It benefits the same group that benefits from no international fee on their credit card.

Thanks to the current advice in this thread, I just opened a Capital One 360 account for my brother for Israel use. Thanks for the help!
