Also, in San Jose airport -- as you enter the baggage claim area - there is an ATM - I attempted to withdraw an equivalent of a few dollars, but the commission fee plus exchange rate that it showed - made it ridiculously unworthy. Uber from the airport to my accommodations 8km away - my credit card was charged $7.18. Just in the airport, the unofficial pick up area - one needs to exit - cross over the street, and take the escalator upstairs.
Uber is technically not 100% legal -- but past few days, I have been taking 4-5 rides a day and had no issues.
