Yes, Schwab is an excellent choice.

In the end, did you try the Charles Schwab account? Would you say its the best choice for U.S. citizens living abroad?

We also have a Schwab account but I personally never use it. The problem is that they don’t have good online banking system so I can’t transfer funds in and out of my account easily. It’s a good account for short trips but if you need something that you can manage online when you are on the road for extended periods of time, I would not recommend it.

I am with Earl – I use Capital One savings and credit card and think they are awesome.

I haven’t had it long (about 2 months) but I’ve had no issue with keeping the Schwab ATM & checking without ever putting any money into my brokerage account. That could always change, but I haven’t heard of any issues like that.
