I have noticed more ATMs in the UK (the standalone type found in shops and bars) are starting to offer DCC. The ATM at my work (a scientific research facility in the middle of nowhere near Cambridge) offers a particularly poor rate. There is someone who withdraws cash on an almost daily basis (leaving his/her receipt on the machine each time) who opts for DCC on their Euro Maestro card.

I'll grab a receipt next time I see one to post an example of the very poor rate offered.
