@masaccio – it’s quite common in lots of countries to charge at least as much for foreign debit cards because they cost as much to process as credit cards. In more touristy places they sometimes build it in to stop people complaining, but the fee is there. Some of the so called fee free FX cards actually cost the same or occasionally more than the fee charging ones.
