Medellin Reports

[Anthony2023]

I decline and take Visa but best transation fee that I found.

Fuck Davivienda! I spent almost an hour at the bank asking them to return my 1. 000.000 mil they stole form my bank but not spit money out. I checked "Decline banks exchange rate" and said the transaction was successful but did not spit any money at me. I have capital one so called them and the transaction went through on there end and the rep said the ATM should have gave you money. After using google translate with some manager at the Davivienda bank almost an hour did they tell me they will credit the account but my take 7-10 bussiness days. Still recieved no answer why ATM did that. I'm not the only one, other people have been scammed a couple years ago by same bank. Careful of Davivienda bank.

So after a late arrival I decided to call it a night after davivienda cancelled a 1 million transaction I requested. I almost requested 2 mil. The good thing is it gave me a receipt saying transaction not received. But my account still shows pending the money subtracted from my account, hopefully it will be back in my account when I wake up, so I don't have to make a phone call, but yeah fuck davivienda, I was going to go get something to eat and maybe pick up a chick or just get some numbers at lleras bar or gustos but I think this was a sign to call it a night, so I did. Not only that but I forgot my burner iPhone at the airport smh. Hoping someone leaves it at the lost and found. I think I just need some sleep, been up past 24 hrs. Only slept a bit on the plane. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.

Of course the key is in determining the "fair amount. " It's like when the Democrats say that "rich" people need to pay their "fair share. " Don't be a sucker and assume that what they ask for is "fair. " Maybe it's fair to them, but not fair to you based on the market. I agree that they want a nice guy who will not hurt or abuse them. Especially if there is a good possibility of repeat business. The more you chase after a hardened pro, the more attitude you get, the more you'll be asked to pay, and, in some cases, the lower the quality of sex will be. My best, most economical girls are those who are new or only part-time or who are non-pros who don't really ask for anything at all (although I always offer them something for "sus cosas".

What is more important to them than looks or charm is that you are a nice guy who is willing to pay them a fair amount for the sex.

... Which facebook pages?....

You can start here.

Facebook for newbies.

What is the name of the love hotel in Laureles? The one that is very new, very sophisticated? Futuristic? Build like a fortress on the outside, but looks like a parking structure on the inside? ? You can walk in or drive in, get a room assigned and up you go.

I am not sure, but was the name "Hotel the?

Correction: I believe it was the Hotel "the".

I am trying to find the hotel's website and address.

I didn't get cheated on but the marriage was going downhill. I just bit the bullet and got divorced even with small kids. It does not actually have it on your kid's life if you have a good shared custody arrangement. It has been 10 years now and life has been good. But I understand the concern about how we would affect the lives of your kids. I have never regretted that divorce. One of the best decisions I have made in my life. The past years with these attractive women overseas has been amazing.

You actually might be an exception compared to others as to how things might of turned out if you had been in an ugly divorce which seems to be more the case.

The impacts financially are one thing, and can be horrendos, but the emotional and psychological damage to the children can be far worse.

I'm going to bet, that some here, might agree that the best thing they got out of being married where children, at least that's my personal experience being married and divorced with two children.

To all the turds that are paying for webcam models, pay for their time just to meet you and no sex, or just over paying in general.

Stop it, and move on. Keep your pimp hand strong!

It is only repulsive when the man has no money or is not famous.

100%. There is no better answer. In EU / UK people don't care as much for some reason about the age gap.

[Turgid]

I am an older white guy and I speak from experience. I have been invited to meet the family and remain friends with them. Doubtful it was love. Most likely an opportunity to have an older benefactor or something.

Also met the friends and their families and they all lived in very poor neighborhoods that you'the never see a Gringo in and nobody ever bothered me and I was never scared.

Don't seek yourself short my friend. People respond to genuine personalities and my studying Spanish and Latin American Affairs with a degree in both at the age of 60 helped I'm sure.

Ok, so I really just have to speak for myself then. I have mongered in Europe, the whole of the western hemisphere and Asia for many decades and I have never had a working girl invite me to meet her parents. I have met some outside of their work environment but was never invited home. I have been invited, though, by civilians who did not know of my hobby.

Got cheated on by wife gave me two options. Divorce and wreck havoc in my kids life or come to Colombia to get even? I choose the latter. As far as excuses go, you have to use your imagination. When theirs a will theirs a way.

Just curious, with considering your experiences in Medellin, will you be finished getting even or will you continue to exercise the latter option to get even in Colombia? Or are you completely rethinking your options?

Thats too funny.

The pua world seems exhausting. I watched a few interviews with a famous PUA named Paul Janka. He did day game in New York. You can see his old videos on you tube. He said his closing rate was 5% and that is considered good in the pua world. And he was good looking and graduated from Harvard. He could have just paid for it like us and saved the aggravation. I can't imagine anyone of us lazy asses on this board hitting on 100 regular girls a day in the US. LOL.

[Mr Enternational]

If the restaurant uses an electronic POS system, the 10% is put on automatically with an explanation that it's voluntary. There will be 2 totals. No need to demand anything, although talking to the manager is a good idea.

I am at a restaurant now. As you said they added a 10% tip and a long explanation at the bottom of the bill saying that if you want to change it then just tell the server.

I was reading my post about game and I thought that some may think it was a flame in the guy but it was not meant to be. I just meant that you don't need game to meet and have fun with attractive girls in Medellin. There are a lot of attractive girls who have young fit boyfriends or guys they hang out with whom they have a lot of fun. These girls are not looking for another boyfriend, they would like to make some money with you. They already have young guys they party with But those guys don't give them money. So they are looking for gringos who are willing to pay them a fair amount of money for sex and they are more than willing to do that but they do prefer guys who are not abusive, rude, smelly, or cranky. What is more important to them than looks or charm is that you are a nice guy who is willing to pay them a fair amount for the sex.

So for you older guys you do not have game, you can still have a good time. Just take a shower, be nice to the girls and try to not be so serious. They will want your business and you will have a good time.

For a myriad of reasons, us mongers complicate things too much. What MoonShot said should be given to new and veteran mongers. Whether you are young or old, good looking or dumpy, you will reach way beyond your league with his advice. Be clean, be respectful, be smart but fair with your donations and you will find great rewards in Medellin. Or be sweaty, have bad breath, treat them like working girls or argue over a 10 k taxi ride, then wonder why the girls never seem to be into you. The choice is yours.

I mentioned other countries. Many hotels or their employees will add fees or taxes that do not exist to make money. At check-in he should try to get whatever service fee or tax removed. He will most likely never get anything accomplished online or on the phone before he gets there. If he really wants to stay there he may have to "eat" the cost for a night or two before changing hotels.

But if you want to get all anal retentive:

Colombia VAT, which is known as the IVA tax, is the country's main indirect tax, which is collected by DIAN.

The IVA tax refund can be requested at the Direcciand de Impuestos why Aduanas Nacionales (DIAN) office in any international airport in the country.

In Medelland, the DIAN office is located in the Jos Mara seerdova airport to the left of the Avianca check-in. According to staff in this office, DIAN at the airport is staffed 24 hours a day every day. But late at night this office may be closed when they rarely have clients. But you can ask the airport information to call DIAN and they will send someone from their office downstairs, which is staffed 24 hours.

All purchases eligible for a tax refund must have been paid for in-person with a debit or credit card. Cash payments for purchases are not eligible for the tax refund.

Excellent information to be aware of for others who are making purchases in Colombia and want to get the 19% collected by DIAN at the time of purchase paid by all Colombians. But I doubt many would mess around trying to get the 19% they paid on a couple of bags of coffee upon leaving the Country. LOL.

[DiscoverFL]

I am pretty much like you. I like to take the girl to my hotel room rather than fuck on site or short time hotel.

I am planning my first trip to Columbia and it seems Medellin is the place to visit first.

Can you give me some feedback where to meet young freelancers? Which bars? Night clubs? Which facebook pages?

Thank you in advance.

First time? Just go stay an the Mansion, learn the ropes and great girls to choose from.

[LoveItHere69]

It's a tax levied on Colombians and Colombian residents called IVA of 19%. Foreign visitors on a tourist Visa are exempt from having to pay this upon showing them their Passport and entry stamp upon checking in. This is something that needs to be addressed upon checking in, not afterwards.
