hokuwela Posted December 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2018 We live in the USA and will be visiting Australia in February. I am told it is better to get local currency from a bank ATM than a currency exchange. Can you advise if any of the Australia bank ATMs are on the "Star system" or "Plus Symbol". Those are the two systems my bank ATM card can use worldwide. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docker123 Posted December 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Plus should be the choice. i think Star in Australia went out of business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docker123 Posted December 13, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Just had a look at a couple of major bank branches down the shops. Both had Plus symbols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Big_M Posted December 13, 2018 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Should be all major Australian bank ATMs. Plus is the ATM network affiliated with Visa, which all the major banks are. If there was any specific location you were concerned about you can use this tool to check. https://www.visa.com/atmlocator/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise Junky Posted December 18, 2018 #7 Share Posted December 18, 2018 you should also check to see if your bank has any Australian partners. Ours partners with Westpac and their ATMs were everywhere so no fees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
