@seulgibair @LimeOvrPortland I think you're underestimating how developed the debit card market is in Europe... a debit card like Revolut gives you free instant international transfers, free spending in foreign currencies, even better rewards than most credit cards. That's what Europeans value, not Amex...

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@seulgibair @LimeOvrPortland AMEX Gold in Europe gives you a ridiculous 1€=0.5 points conversion rate. You can barely use it anywhere and they charge exorbitant foreign currency fees, meaning EU/UK/Swiss/Nordic card holders won't use their cards outside their domestic markets, which is ridiculous.

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@LimeOvrPortland @NurProbleme @seulgibair European businesses can't charge you more depending on your payment method lol, doesn't matter if it's cash, debit or credit. At the same time, the merchant fee is capped at 0.3%, that's why European banks simply don't have any incentive to pay rewards or offer credit cards

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@LimeOvrPortland @seulgibair There are no rewards in Europe. Most credit cards have an annual fee, even Amex gives you a ridiculous 1€=0.5 point conversion rate and the welcome bonuses are like 2000 points lol. The culture is simply different.

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@caibyy @EnergyThen @Schilted The UK is the exception. In continental Europe the best you can get is an Amex, paying a monthly subscription, which you can use in like 1/20 establishments and getting a ridiculous conversion rate like 1€=0.5 points lol.

@SAS Hi SAS! I was wondering if the stopover programme was also available in connecting flights FROM Europe to North America with connections in Oslo or only in CPH travelling TO Europe?

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@AdamRackis @bratricek That might be true for YOU, but not for most Americans and you know that. Buying shit they can't afford.

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@Ruth_GB11 @stuffybag @matt_olma I only hear about Americans having problems with banking frauds and stolen data... in Europe everyone pays with debit cards and you barely hear about that.

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@Gaismair Well I don't know where that guy is from but in Europe there's no such thing as a credit score and instead of giving u rewards, credit cards usually come with an annual fee lol. Nobody uses credit cards, beyond the few Amex here and there which are accepted in like 1/10 stores

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@JonEriksson_ @rjfaber91 @matt_olma No they're not, not compared to what u see in the US or even the UK. Even Amex gives you a 1€=0.5 point rate, obviously financed by the membership and not by the merchant fee, which is capped in the EU lol.

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@matt_olma Rewards are not a thing in Europe. Merchant fees are capped at 0.3% in the EU, so credit cards simply don't have the money to finance rewards. The European philosophy is why would you spend money you don't have? If you take out the rewards, that's truly what a credit card is

@electo_mania Con el último punto la ha cagado y muy grande. Recuperar la «credibilidad exterior» de España = hacer lo que diga EEUU/Israel, por si alguien tenía dudas

@iker_raposooo @javionsalo El caso de Canarias es que Vox apenas es la 5ª fuerza, por lo tanto desde que suba un par de miles de votos ya el porcentaje de crecimiento se dispara. Realmente no quiere decir absolutamente nada, Vox quedará 4º y mucho es

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@javionsalo En Canarias Vox apenas es la 5ª fuerza política. Crecer un 12.9% es ganar un par de cientos de votos

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@Natsecjeff wait is this a joke i can't tell

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@thephilippics Yeah you completely lost the plot as the tweet kept going on. Take care of yourself

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@JacobBaime It's call protesting. Be grateful you don't have those in the US, this entire administration would've been done in a matter of days lol

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@Europhoria93 I mean, calling it South Cyprus is wrong and kinda stupid, but let's not pretend it's the same situation lol

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@23Xx_SODA_xX32 @RufioNorseman @VegasMike27 You think the 5% target was really about autonomy and not about subsidising the American military industry? Most countries will never get near the 5% target either way, at least Spain is honest about it lol

[dfneibeib @vbnerihb]

@Hugothester Socialismo canario? Canarias está gobernada por Coalición Canaria y el PP, payasito
