Oystein,

I feel your pain. It is strange that your CC company charged the 3% on BA on their US site. I have been trying to find a credit card that has no fee for international or smaller fees forever and they do not exist.

The World Points AMEX card from B of A does not charge the foreign currency transaction fee. Reviewing my records, I don't see any fees. I pay it off immediately after the charges show up, but that wouldn't affect the leveling of the fees in the first place.

I actually picked up this card when I used my debit card in Panama, and was charged the foreign currency fee, even though I was withdrawing dollars.. The rep at B of A suggested I switch. It's been good so far. Had it about 6 months now, and use it all the time. 0 interest for a year, no annual fee, 9% after that..
