Banking with free ATM withdrawals?

[albaman]

We are moving to Calis in mid September & I was wondering what UK bank to have my company pension paid into.

HSBC do free ATM withdrawals abroad but only with their "Plus" account that costs £12.95 per month.

I have heard that Nationwide do free ATM withdrawals?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Our pension is paid into nationwide and we have free withdrawels.Nationwide Flexaccount

We use Nationwide too.

Make sure though that you maintain an address in the UK. When or if your card needs renewing they won't send it to a Turkish address.

Thanks for replies. I have now applied for a Nationwide Flex Account & will have a UK address for mail etc.

Despite saying they will not send cards to Turkey the Nationwide sent Eric & myself new cards this year without asking.
I also after much hassle wore them down for a CC pin number to be sent here.
I had never recieved the PIN whilst still living in the UK. After 1 year of asking, my local branch said tell them to send it to them and it can be collected by my son .
Called the CC section and ...No they will not do that they will only send it to an UK address .
We explained we did not have one so how were we to get the PIN? [?]
Not a problem we can send it to an UK address.
Ok I said send it to my sons.No can do it must be your address. [!]Well we live in Turkey as you can see from our details! [!]
After the above had been repeated about 10 times I asked to speak to a manager. Told they would get someone to call us back.:DNothing...1 Week later our PINs arrive in the post.

Result....the person I talked to obviously could not work out a way to let us have our PINs in line with their procedures and the manager obviously said.. send them in the post!
