Bullshit Michael and you know it. Any and every normal credit card (be it Visa/Mastercard or any other card) make it clear what the exchange rate is.

I have 2 Visa cards through 2 different banks.
One charges the interbank rate on the day, plus 1.75% commission
The second charges the interbank rate , plus 2.75% commission

They post these rates online and they're mentioned in the TOS, plus they'll tell you what they are over the phone.

Saying epassporte doesn't know or doesn't have any control over this, is like saying we're all a bunch of fools. We'll we're not fools, you DO KNOW what the rate is... why not tell us?
Maybe it's because your commission % is the highest around and you're trying to hide that fact by posting stupid lies.
