Hoi,
The one thing I respond to is the "Yes, and it costs little ", exactly
the part that you filtered out. Credit cards are a rip off compared to
EU bank transfers. Banks that receive money and charge for are in
violation of EU rulings. I know for sure that some Italian banks steal
in this way. This is part of a concerted effort to get the EU public to
use credit cards ie enrich the banks.
Thanks,
GerardM
