I have recently signed up to this account to get fee free withdrawals overseas. I have received a Visa Debut card but should I also be receiving an ATM card? I presume this works like a bank account with a BSB and account number?
 
Your debit card is your ATM card.
 
Ok there is a pin coming out but are there also details of the actual bank account to transfer money into? Is there a BSB and account or do you bpay like a credit card?
 
From memory the details are in the sign up process, and on one of the letter you get.
 
You direct debit, as suggested, using a supplied BSB and account number.

The BSB I use is 242200 ...
 
Yep got another letter today with the account details. A further letter is coming with the PIN.

If I understand it correctly, Citibank as the account provider won't charge me anything to use ATMs overseas but some if the ATMs themselves may. However if I use Citibank ATMs there will be no charge?

Correct. Map them out!
 
Just be aware that if you will be using it to travel and you don't use a mobile phone overseas, then you will need a hard token to receive a OTP to access the account.

Sorry what is OTP?

i will be wanting to check my balance overseas but I think I will be putting money into it rather than taking money out online. Will be taking money out via ATM.

Exactly - if on a lengthy trip, I will deposit $$$ a few times so I like to keep on top of it.
Also handy to keep a check on exchange rates etc.
