Can confirm, highly recommend! I spend a few months abroad a year and get hundreds in ATM rebates and even more in forex/transaction fee value. Though I wish I got more interest on cash balances.
EDIT: the biggest benefit though is the customer service. A US based person answers with no wait time and they deal with VISA for me. So much better and I'm not even high net worth by their standards!
However I also have a 'play' Robinhood account and if Schwab can roll out a better mobile app I would 100% move those equities over.

The Schwab mobile app has recently been updated (unsure exactly how recently), and it has got substantially better since I first tried it a couple years ago.
