For various values of "alot". The worst I've seen is about a 3%
fee of various sorts (transaction fee, conversion difference,
whatever).
You are "making debt" but again, we're talking about 1% or so.
Are you suggesting that you can "beat" credit card cost of 2%
or so (which is what most folks endure)? Alternately folks use
ATM cards to get cash, which typically runs them around 1 - 2%
as well. I'd be curious the business model that is charging less
than this.

Again, I'll urge readers to investigate cash (or credit) cards with 0%
fee, and exchange rates at as close to market as possible. For people in
the UK, www.nationwide.co.uk

My most recent transaction-

900 NOK (last Friday, March 16)
charge on card GBP �75.85

That's 4 pence higher than the market rate.
