69: not everyone can get a card that lets you withdraw from ATM's without paying a fee. My bank takes a minimum of $6 to withdraw anything. If the limit were the 'mythical' $100, that amounts to 6%.

privatbruger, I do realise that .... I would admit to having a local bank card (HSBC) that I get free withdrawals out of the ATM's.
However, I do know using my UK bank card that I usually pay an additional 20k dong per 2m dong at the applied exchange rate, plus a FLAT fee of £1.50 per transaction. Which is why the 4m dong limit is of such interest to me. I save money by taking more. Unfortunately, the single higher limit for most seems to be 4m, although I do remember someone mentioning ANZ ATM's having a higher limit.
But 4m dong does go a long way.
