Bank of America and China Construction Bank - Free ATM charge

[ipramono]

Fyi,

China Construction Bank and Bank of America has some partnership. We can get money with BOA card for free in the CCB ATM

Hi,

Does anyone know how many CCB ATMs there are in Beijing? Are there a lot that it's worth it to open a Bank of America account just so I can access the CCM ATMs or are there just a few that it would be a hassle to get to them (living near BeiDa)

thanks!

just fyi in case anyone didn't know, but the Chinese ATMs only accept up to 6 numbers for your PIN, unlike in the US. The Bank of America chick told me to enter in at 7-8 numbers and only after I got to China did I find out that my PIN wouldn't work. (BofA doesn't allow you to change your PIN in the automated services unlike WellsFargo, so I had to have them snail mail a new PIN to my boyfriend in the States and then have him call me with the PIN--pain in my ass).

I just confirmed that fact on BofA's website. Very good to know. Thanks.
