ATM Withdrawl Fees in Mexico
 
Does anyone know what the various banks charge in Mexico for using their ATM network? For example, I have a credit union ATM card which will not charge a fee, but the bank I draw from in Mexico may charge a fee and I'm trying to figure out which banks charge the lowest fee. Thanks.

7.5 pesos was what I was charged just a few weeks ago.

I've only ever paid what was charged by my home bank (BoA) using ATM machines in puerto vallarta.

Your bank will tell you.

Look out for "coversion fees," too as they do the peso-dollar calc.

I've never been charged a fee. I figure they make they money on the exchange rate.

I live in San Miguel de Allende, Gto. and use my USAA ATM (15 free out of network w/d a month) for all cash.
Never been charged a fee by USAA, Banorte, Banamex, Bancomer nor Serfin.

The fee you will see on the ATM machine is only if you are using a Mexican Bank Card, foreign cards are not charged a fee by the ATM, the only fee will be by your home bank

Thanks to all for your responses. mikemo, I'm gathering quite a file with info from u for our upcoming trip to Mexico. Certainly appreciate all of the responses from u to others and to my varied questions these last months.

Citibank is a partner of Banamex & there is no fee at either end for ATM withdrawals if you are a account holder. I keep a Citibank account just for this purpose. Also I recently heard that B of A & Seifin (SP?) has similar arrangement.
