Some people may have been conned my friend, but not I. It happens that since the fee has been imposed, I've only transferred through the UK and therefore have not been subject to a green tax, luxury tax, whatever one might call it.

W/that said, I agree w/brp that the segment is quite interesting and worth pursuing to clarify.
