On a budget and looking for free ATMs in Tahiti - Any top banks?
I remember paying around $2-3 in fees at a Bank of Tahiti ATM last year, so it’s probably smarter to avoid frequent small withdrawals. There's supposedly a Banque Socredo machine at Faaa Airport that should work fine.
There are a couple of ATMs at the airport, and they don’t charge any local fees for foreign cards, just whatever your own bank might take. The interface is simple and user-friendly.
I used Socredo and Bank of Polynesia, both charge a fee!!! Cannot remember the withdrawal limit. Key tip: avoid machines not directly tied to a bank branch. Main branches give fee-free withdrawals and better reliability.
