Is Citi Plus still the best option for overseas cash? Obviously I haven't done a lot of international travel since 2019.

If I have to open some other account it might be time to get started, since we depart in five weeks.

(I'm set for FX-fee-free purchases, with a US Amex Gold backed with a Coles Rewards Mastercard and a Bundll account which charges to my Dragon Visa.)
 
I've got Up, Suncorp, Macquarie, ubank, ING, AMP Go, Wise and Revolut.
Macbank, UBank and ING are my go to options. Each much the much.

They all also work just fine as fee free debit cards when I can’t use 28° MC.

I have Wise but can’t imagine a single scenario where I’d want to cope the forex combined with low withdrawal limit at an ATM.
 
I've been using Up, but I also have Macquarie and HSBC. The HSBC one is a bit funny with exchange rates, but it's my fallback card, in case I need a Visa.

For wise wouldn't a Low cash requirement countries be possible ? Also isnt the spread generally better than most options atm.
