OK, so tried it at an ATM and it worked fine, no issues. They charged me $2 for the withdrawal as expected, so no surprises. However, the currency conversion is off the hook: a whooping 12% So all charges considered, to get $100 it costs me $16, although the cost is lower if I withdraw more money (ie $1000 would cost me around 13.2%). Still very very VERY high costs
