Another way cambios rip you off
[QUOTE=Kick123;1816588]I changed dollars at Unicambio of Santa Fe shopping mall. One of 50 mil bill was fake. They mix it intentionally when you sell lots of dollars. Check every one of them carefully. Don't trust them.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the heads up. Yet another way cambios are the worst deal, besides the 6-10% they keep from the going exchange rate. Always use the ATM in Colombia, what could be easier or better than that?
Current exchange rates for CP and us $ ATM v cambios? June 13,2016
Thanks for current on the street info.
Rate on Jue 10 2904 cop / dollar
[QUOTE=MiamiBob;1893271]Thanks for current on the street info.[/QUOTE]My Schwab debit card used on June 10.2016 at the Bancolombia ATM on Avenida Poblado and Calle 10 gave 2904 cop / dollar.
A few days earlier the exact same ATM gave 3100 cop / dollar.
I was told the Bancolombia ATM does not charge fee. I find this hard to believe, but nothing showed up on my receipt or on my Schwab statement.
