Posts: 2427Abbobora clinica
Power cut today, so we had to get by with one candle and the girl's smartphone and mine as light sources. I was surprised by the pricing system here. I was asked to pay 110 R upfront at reception so I thought this must be a discount price because of the power outage. However, the girl asked for an additional 150 in the room, saying that her money was kept separate from the house's money. This is the first instance of dual payment in a clinica. Prime clinica was 180 R, so cheaper than Abbobora's 150 + 110.

I am, though, buying things in Sao Paulo with my credit card every day and the exchange rate is the official Visa exchange rate (with 1.75% foreign transaction fee in my case alas).

Starling Bank is similar to Revolut but has no limit on free withdrawals (but you do pay local ATM fees) and better customer service, they have both Pounds Sterling and Euro accounts, Charles Schwab is only dollars but has no limit, no fees and credits back to your account any local fees charged by the bank ATM you used.

Last time I was there, I looked all over, and couldn't find one. I'd love to be able to get some cash at the airport next time I'm in town.

Some banks offer Visa and Master cards with a limited number of transactions free withdrawals, eg 25 withdrawal p. a. without transaction fees. I guess the transaction fee free package is thrown in as a sales pitch by the bank. Such cards usually have a high yearly fixed cost, typically 150 to 180 euros. They come with all kinds of useless insurances.
The only fully DEBIT card with a transaction fee free package in Europe that I know of is Revolut. But the transaction fee free amount with Revolut is limited to 200 euro a month. Peanuts.
What is Charles Schwab Bank's business model? Do they give a less good exchange rate?

Posts: 27ATM and debit cards
I've been using the 24 Horas ATMs and the Bradesco ATMs. They work well. No fees charged here or by my bank (Citi). My debit card is accepted everywhere and the rates aren't bad. No need for changing money because Reais are so accessible. I'm off to Canada today and returning in December. They've made it so easy to enter and the flights are empty I don't want to the winter in Canada.
