Recently purchasing Google Drive 100GB for $1.99 plus Taxes ($2.59 \/\u00a31.51) cost me a “NON SELLING PURCHASE FEE” of \u00a31.25. This cost was almost as expensive as the service I was paying for!<\/p>\n

I looked into this and this is because my bank Santander have an overseas fee they charge for Debit Cards like most other banks.<\/p>\n

So my next idea was to try the Santander Zero Credit Card as it states the fee is “NIL” so this shall be interesting.<\/p>\n

This website below was brilliant for seeing all the fees and percentages all the debit and credit card companies charge. There are companies that do not charge! So take a look at the link below:
