I hope you aren't using an ATM card. When I first started traveling years ago I was going to just access my bank account. I sat down and visited with the President of the bank and he advised against it. If your card is compromised you could have problems with the money in the bank (lose it). We carried as much as the FDIC would insure in our accounts and we didn't want that to happen. He advised using a credit card to minimize possible problems and that's what we do to this day.
