this is a pilot being run in europe which isnt good news for the rest of the world. I recently had a holiday in spain and everytime I used my mastercard I was charged in sterling and when I asked why 5/6 times the person claimed they couldnt understand me

Nice to see the wee man is ignored yet again.
