Hi
We have both Caxton and Revolut cards - we have been using them to buy shopping etc. Now i need to withdraw some cash at the ATM. The last time i used my Caxton at TEB, to take out TL, i was charged 50TL - are there any ATMs that do not charge for a TL withdrawal for either of the cards ?
Thanks

Credit west for Revolut no charge dont know about Caxton sorry

Ziraat ATM free withdrawal of TL with Revolut card, no idea about Caxton.

From memory, you can only take out 1500TL per day from ATM's here without charge from the local banks. (I only checked some local bank websites, not all, a while back for this info)

Have a look at viewtopic.php?f=27&t=49098 for more info on which ATM's we found out didn't charge for using Revolut, and which ones did, albeit it may not include all banks.

On the basic card its two hundred sterling equivalent a month which is around 1700TL these days

I think alphamike is talking about a different thing ETS ? I think there are some ATMs here that do not charge THEIR end up to a certain amount per month but do after this amount. This would be as well as charges revolut end for going over their 200 per month cash limit. All very complicated.

Yes, Erol's correct. Although there is a £200 limit per month on cash withdrawals on the Revolut side of things, the local banks here only allow a daily limit of 1500TL and then they will charge you. I cannot confirm whether all banks here only allow this amount, just know that is the case with Ziraat bank, and to be honest I have forgotten which other ones I checked on. So you have to bear all this in mind when withdrawing TL from ATM's here. Best to check on the banks website.

1700TL withdrawn using a Revolut card from Turkish Bank ATM at Esentepe petrol station last Monday, no charges.

That's great come_on_aylin, thank you for the info.

Thanks everyone. I tried CreditWest - no good - but it could have been the ATM was on the blink.
Turk Bank Karakum - withdrew 1700TL - no charge. Great.

Just to recap...

On an earlier thread, the conclusion was that the ATMs of Turk, Ziraat, Iktisat and İS banks allow commission free withdrawal of TL using Revolut, up to the amounts designated by the ATM operators.

Above £200 Sterling equivalent per month, Revolut charge 2%, which is still a reasonable rate...

This relates to the standard Revolut account, there are other Revolut accounts which charge a monthly fee and have higher withdrawal levels.

Interesting
