I believe VISA/PLUS is now padding the rate when in the past this was not the case.
It sounds like an issue with Everbank, not with Visa/Plus per se. I'd escalate with in Everbank if I were you.
(I have a Plus ATM card and I find that I am charged the 1% that my credit union says I'm charged.)

Visa has an exchange rate calculator on their website:
