Hi, did you try withdrawal from ATM in Turkey? I have read that back in 2017, the ATM in Turkey only accept card with 4-digit PIN. Since ours are all 6-digit PIN, is this an issue now in 2019?
Besides, did the ATM charge a fee for each withdrawal?
Thanks!

Thing doesn't go as the way u did. withdraw small amount is not the way when BP charge RM10 fixed rate per withdrawal no matter is RM500 or RM5000.
Usually this is how we do for decent BP user.
1. Bring little bit of local currency for emergency use or temporary use if you dont have ATM nearby / time allowed to withdraw once u landed.
2. Go to ATM(do research to find the zero admin fee before you go on trip) withdraw the maximum cash available(of course depend on your spending pattern)
for example if u are going to taiwan, ATM at airport charge zero admin fee and withdraw up to TWD20,000 with only RM10 BP charge. Just hit it to the max.
3. research for some ATM that have zero bank admin charge outside (for example 7-11/ bank) near your travel location and prepare for another withdrawal.
4. At last only withdraw the balance of what u need to complete the trip and reach airport safely with sufficient fund for transportation. (of course it's not worth as RM10 fix charges)
i missed my 3 and 4. So while i was in taiwan, i still lack of TWD1000 for taxi to airport. I didnt do research on zero bank charges nearby me so i just simply withdraw another TWD2000 with TWD100 and RM10 BP charges... *ouch*
Thanks for sharing. If you will, please provide the bank name that you have withdrew overseas and state the ATM fee incurred for the TS to update Post #1.
