Wasn’t that a case of being followed from the airport though? If I recall it was a fellow Brit, and I recall seeing reference to this case on government advice. In any case at the time I didn’t realise it was Faena until after I’d been there. Made me nervous when I saw an article later and...

Buenos Aires generally seems much safer to me compared to London with the only caveat that I tend not to go on my phone on the street here whilst I’d do that in London

Had the same problem in Bariloche sadly

Being half Welsh, I would love to visit there sometime. I did a few months ago in a Palermo stall find a lovely red dragon made out of various wire metal and springs and brought that back to Wales

Even from a rudimentary comprehension of Russian, it is clear that the question in Russian refers to a hotel whereas in Spanish and English there is no mention of a hotel Edit: apologies I did not see read your message thoroughly initially. Though I think there is still a very reasonable case...

Having recently arrived in Buenos Aires for the first time in a few months, I seem to have noticed a greater propensity for acceptance of card payments than previously. Is this coincidental, anecdotal, or are places (at least in CABA) becoming more open to accepting card payment with the new MEP...

Was quite surprised to see this towards the top of bbc news yesterday: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-64610954

In my case of just one ticket it seemed worth it to pay £40 one way for peace of mind. I’ll buy a return ticket when I can pay in cash

I went with Direct Ferries. Got tired of faffing around trying to get either page to work. I haven’t used my ticket yet as I’m currently in Europe but will be using it in the coming weeks

I could never get the Uruguayan site to work with a U.K. credit card. The site would get stuck in a loading frame, the charge would appear on my pending transactions for 5 days and then disappear. I think they only accept either AR/UY cards

I bought a ticket from directferries, but for MVD-BA. Price seemed to be the best I could find with not having an Argentinian/Uruguayan CC. Have you checked the prices on directferries?

Anybody tested out recently using a visa credit card via Apple Pay?

I replicate this actually on the visa website so it may be resolved. Testing exchanging 10 GBP->ARS gives: 10 GBP = 2348.448479 ARS 1 GBP = 234.844848 ARS 1 ARS = 0.004258 GBP Testing exchanging 1000 ARS->GBP gives: 1000 ARS = 2.480090 GBP 1 ARS = 0.002480 GBP 1 GBP = 403.211125 ARS...

Hi! Does anybody have any good recommendations for a place to get a men’s haircut where they’re likely to speak English? (I find it hard enough to ask for what I want in English). I’m overdue a haircut but I presume they’re substantially cheaper in Buenos Aires than in London. Thanks!

Does anyone know if this also affects Mastercard? Kicking myself now for not having got a Mastercard credit card in the last couple months

From a UK perspective, showed 430ish yesterday and today shows 220

Does anybody have any experience booking buquebus or colonia express online? I tried to book colonia express online but they simply charged me, haven’t issued me a ticket, nor have responded to my emails. Starting to wonder whether going via Montevideo was worth the frustration of trying to save...

Not sure how related this is but I just tried to buy a colonia express ticket on my phone, paying with a British credit card. It said an error occurred, but my credit card has been charged, and I haven’t been emailed a ticket or anything. I don’t want to try again given that the money has been...

No worries, thanks for checking!

How does one contact them for this? Any idea of prices?
