Money

Given that banks charge international ATM fees and credit cards add on international fees, what is the best way to change and spend money in Mexico?

My banks are pirates! The ATM charge is 2.5% and the credit card charge is 3%. I guess the best way is to change money here in the US and take cash although I hate to carry cash.

Change banks!

Just so you have it all straight.

In 2000, J.P. Morgan & Co. merged with Chase Manhattan Corp., in effect combining four of the largest and oldest money center banking institutions in New York City (J.P. Morgan, Chase, Chemical and Manufacturers Hanover) into one firm called J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.

The purchase of WAMU was not until 2008.

The parent Corporation is J P Morgan Chase.

Thanks for the reply--yes they are making it hard for people to get/spend money in Mexico. Too bad.
