Be careful if you use your CC at Gustos
I don't know if the waitresses are still working there. I'll be there this weekend.
But a while back I had a VIP area. When it was time to pay the bill the waitress brought the bill along with the credit card machine.
I saw her specifically go through all the motions and saw that my transaction was approved. However no receipt came out.
She says the machine wasn't working properly. Came back this time with another machine charged it again and this time the receipt came out. So obviously she brought the machine without paper on purpose.
Lucky for me my closest friend in medellin was a bouncer there at the time. When I told him what happened the management apologized and gave me cash the next day.
Come to find out a few girls working there, 2 were venues were doing this regularly.
My friend told me they double charged so many guys and they wouldn't know for weeks or even a month.
I get alerts on all my ccs if there's a charge over 50 $ immediately.
I don't think the owners or management was in on it since I know at least 2 girls got fired from there.
Just a heads up. And those waitresses are always trying to upcharge. If you get VIP make sure of every detail before ordering.
Yes, looking and Handsom (ish)
[QUOTE=SpiderRider;2523254]You had better be young and handsome. They're not colombianas. and please don't say "Meddy"[/QUOTE]I'll call it whatever I feel like calling it, thanks. Just an abbreviation, don't get your panties in a wad. I've lived in Medellin since 2017 and have been visiting Colombia since 2007. Don't need advice on how to get along here. What I am looking for is info on hostels with girls with loose morals and inhibitions. Why? Because quite some time ago, I read on a forum (not sure if it was this one or another one), that there was a particular Hostel here Valle de Aburra where hot foreign girls are seemingly more prone to hooking up in the hostel.
I never thought I'd say this, but after living here for a few years and banging hot 19-25 yr olds everyday, I would like to mix it up a bit. I have zero attraction for the women in the US when I go back and visit. Lots of Euro tourists come out here for various reasons.
Quarantine and Toque de queda
There has been a lot of discussion about this. I thought I would add my personal experience. Consider it my 2 cents.
Most of us agree that the CO government rules are beyond stupid and not based on any science but is what it is. This forum is not about debating that.
I have make 4 trips to MDE since October and they had some form of lockdown when I was there. I do a PCR test when I go in so there is no quarantine for me. I have had almost no issues finding dates. Girls don't care. I mainly use FB and rarely casas like Energy with friends. Of course if you are depending on clubs exclusively, it will have some impact but overall, I would not discourage anyone from going due to restrictions.
