Bank charging a transaction fee for purchasing with a debit card

Q: Whenever I buy something from outside of the UK with my debit card, my bank takes a purchase/transaction fee. I dont mind this. Is this allowed?

A: If they are taking something for the service they provide it is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
