If you use your regular bank card, very likely you will be charged currency conversion fees for every transaction you make overseas. I’m with CBA and they charge these fees for my everyday account.
What you need is an account that doesn’t charge currency conversion or ATM withdrawal. Look at Bankwest for debit or Latitude for credit.
