Hi, thanks for your great post. Thankfully we found the cabs in both Rio and Sao Paulo to be great during our time in Brazil. The thing which absolutely did my head in was the banks. ATM's would work one day then not the next, and I'm not talking about out of order broken. I mean put your card in, go thru the entire process and then have it error or cancel. Credit cards were all but useless, and were unable to be used to book anything online, and nobody wants to carry much cash for safety reasons. We often we found ourselves down to our last pennies and rejected by multiple ATM's wondering what we were going to do...then as if by magic, an ATM would work...Perhaps you can tell me if this is common or just our bad luck. Having said all the we LOVE Brazil and can't wait to go back !!!

Things that you should know before visit Brazil
Hi, sorry for the late reply.. Smart decision, never carry more than $50 on your pocket the bandits are always looking to stole someone. I never used a ATM yet but i think you mean the 24hours bank that u can put Your international Card right ? Mhmmm, as you know this country is a bit fucked up and most of banks arent always working after 9-10 PM and sometimes dont works on saturday (dont ask me why). My suggestion is to withdraw all the money that you want in airports and hide it on Your hotel, then just use the necessary know ? Hope you understand what i'm trying say, my english its a bit weak :)
