Penfed FT fee of 2% starting this month

[Anonymous]

Most of my cards are 1% or less on FT.  Went to Cancun last month.  Guess I'll need to check it out when I go out of country again.

BTW:  I have a CapOne Rewards Ultra Pro and they told me 1% FT....

This is the definitive source regarding credit/debit card foreign use and fees:

If any Cap1 card has an FT fee it is news to both them and me.

Are you sure? I called CapOne just prior to a trip to Rome in late September & was told 0%. (My card is a No Hassle Rewards MasterCard, if that matters.)

The charges that we incurred on this trip appear on our latest statement. No mention of a fee. On average, our conversion rate worked out to $1.45 per Euro.

I'll double check this and if I just understood I'll be kicking myself since I paid the 1% using my USAA CC
