Goodbye St George/Westpac. Hello Bendigo!

I came to Sydney 30 years ago in November. I opened a bank account with the Advance Bank who were later taken over by St George. Later again St George were taken over by Westpac.
Last week I authorised a training provider to debit my credit card for some training. The bank foreign currency fees of 3% added up to nearly $900!
When you can do a Telegraphic Transfer for $25 I consider it outrageously unconscionable to charge $900.
Of course I contacted St George but they refused to so anything about it saying it is in the terms and conditions of the credit card.

Takeaway to you, before doing large transactions, check the bank fees.
