Does anyone know of a credit card that does not charge a surcharge on every foreign purchase? My Southwest card charges 2% extra and my USAir BOA Visa charges 3%!! I sure would like to find a card that doesn't gouge! Help!!

Great question! This seems to be a growing trend as of late. BankRate.com recently wrote a very informative article about this very subject and, although we have no partnership with them, we don't hesitate to refer consumers to their site. You will find the article at the following web page...

Hope this helps!
