    I realised this when I took money out of a cash machine in Tenerife.

    It shows you an exchange rate and a prompt to accept. If you press yes, you get scammed with a crap rate. It’s not really clear that if you press no you still get money but at your bank exchange rate which is almost certainly better than a scummy airport ATM.

    I guess it’s nice that you get scammed right out of the gate, because at least it puts you on guard for the rest of your holiday. Fuck that whole island tbh.
