Posts: 782Cash vs Credit Cards?
So much discussion here about ATMs which leads me to ask the question -- besides the chicas and maybe street food stalls, are there a lot of things in town that you cannot buy with a credit card? Do taxis and Metro (if buying a card) accept credit cards?
On the subject of ATMs and terminals at the Metro stations. Do these have options to display in English or is it all totally in Spanish?

I have Capital One 360 though not Schwab, so maybe for you it will work. You should go try it and report back what happens.

There is also Scotiobank Colpatria with branches in Medellin that allow a higher withdrawal amount, I think 900 mil. I don't know how much, but they do charge an ATM fee.

Also it just once again proves what folks have been saying all along; the same girls work in different venues. It is just like how you can walk in to McDonald's and it costs you one price. You can order delivery from McDonald's and it costs you another price. You can order McDonald's delivery through Rappi and it costs you another price. Same cheeseburger; 3 different prices depending how you obtain it.

Posts: 4051Maybe the Caja Social problem was an ATM with no cash at the time you tried to withdraw. The next time I need some cash I'm going to check them out. I've heard before that they don't charge fees foor ATM transactions.

Just saw a girl I met online on mileroticos / photoprepagos back when I was in Medellin 3 months. I used to invite her over a lot for 350 k cop.
Just saw her in a KBS lleras video from 1 month ago.
Small world to be honest. Got to remember that this is a martlet and with every market there is supply and demand. There's always new girls entering the market and new girls leaving the market. Question is what is the quality and quantity of the girls leaving and what is the quantity and quality of girls entering.
I think everything is balanced as of right now maybe slightly negative but I don't think the future looks good for various reasons which I won't get into in this post. Maybe next time if someone is interested.

Minutes then check my Schwab acct and divide the number of pesos dispensed by the number of USD Schwab has deducted from my account. That's where I come up with the rates like I just posted.
Usually a week or so after I get back, Schwab will credit a lump sum for the transaction fees. So I can assume that the lump sum divided by the number of trips to the ATM converted back to pesos
then added to the total withdrawn would give me the higher conversion rate (I know it will not be 100% accurate due to different banks, different days and different withdrawal amounts but should be closer to the actual number). Whew! I got confused just typing that sentence. Jajaja.
I know not to accept their conversion rate so I always decline that. Next trip I will take a foto of the ATM asking me if I am ok with the transaction fee. It may not be Davienda but I know I
Have seen this numerous times.
