Wondering why you get the 50 questions run around at some exchanges when all you want to know is 'What's the rate ?'
If there's all sorts of percentages and sliding scales and mental gymnastics happening then yes, you're being swindled by a cashier who's trying to figure out how 'squeezable' a customer you are.
If you can't get a clear-cut quote for 'X' amount inclusive of all fees, if any, in less than 30 seconds you need to shop elsewhere because they're sizing you up.
EG :
Atlas : EU 1000 @ .5509 + AU$0 fee = AU$1815.20
Other FX : EU 1000 @ .5296 + AU$0 fee = AU$1888.20
This was their "final quote" after trying to get me to up the EU amount so "can give you a better rate". And the better rate wasn't as good as our rate rate 😮
Yes, you can ask for a better rate and yes, sometimes we'll give it to you (usually once you're at the 5 or 10k mark ..) but we don't make you dance like a monkey to get the information.
