And those that have a bank account (usually savings, for some reason checking account not as common), won't have much in it. One time a girl showed me she had like 50 mil pesos in her savings. I had to do a bancolombia transfer so she would have enough to help me buy some party favors.
You won't find many with anything other than a savings account, because a checking account is a form of credit. Colombian banks are very stingy when it comes to issuing credit, even secured credit, like a checking account. So the savings account is what their debit cards are tied to.
Credit cards also don't have the fraud protection like I'm the US. If someone uses their card, they're stuck paying for it. Happened to the one girl I know with a credit card.

Going to Medellin Friday for 1 week
Well it's time to go back to paradise. Not looking forward to the toque de queda but it will not affect me that much because I don't go out. Once in a while but that's OK too. I know why they are doing it (curfew) and it's all good with me. If anyone is there during this time, hit me up for some food. Monday-Thursday will be the only time that we can go to the restaurants.

I think this is common in Latin America. Some payment devices have this built-in. One need to choose sin cuota or input 1.

Sin Condom Blues

Amazing session in Zandaly, an English speaking Colombian cracked open a fresh bottle of rum for me, drinks for me, the girl and the session just over 100.000 wow. The most underrated Casa in Medellin, no I have not been to all of them but that lady Catalina (Mamasan), staff and guests are so friendly to gringos with terrible Spanish.
First time at Dulce Campana really good line up, amazing session. Oral sin condon as standard as reported. Back of house admin lady Isabelle speaks English but I used my weak Spanish with the front of house Mamasan (What do they call them in Spanish?) Definitely returning.
Girls refusing oral sin condom, wow, oh well.
I remember before the pandemic asking a Venezuelan how much more to bareback her just out of curiosity, and she told me it would be an expensive upcharge, and when I asked how much, she said 5.000 Pesos, yet I just couldn't do it as it was going to force me out of retirement to pay for the upcharge. LOL.
As far as lots of girls refusing to oral sin condom, I find it a bit peculiar given the hard times were in. Maybe it's the way you brought it up, and did you make an offer to pay more for it and where the girls still then opposed to it?
You said your Spanish skills are weak, so that may of been part of the problem which is not a reflection on you.
I personally willl not go with a girl who doesn't provide this service, and handle it differently with the new SW's I go with as I typically just ask if they are going to blow me without a condom, and the best answer you can get in Spanish is "of course", and when I get this answer, which is always music to my ears however seems like, "hey you stupid fuck", we always blow guys without a condom, which makes sense to me, especially for the locals.
Regardless, as long as the long weekend lockdowns continue, my bet is every single girl who earlier said no to the BBBJ will do it with no upcharge on Thursday if pressed to do so, along with a lot of bare-back specials being available.

I have already posted about this but I will mention it again. Some but not all shops have numbers for Pico why cedula, I open any document on my phone, like today my drivers licence and I zoom right into whatever number is required out of and I have never ever been asked for anything more. I think when they see an obvious gringo they cannot be bothered like today when they guy wanted to see my receipt leaving jumbo I was just waved by, I get this feeling a lot of the time.
Exito and D1 have been open on the weekend.

Actually they do have a defined credit history and rating system in Colombia, however you have to be registered thru your Cedula to be part of it, and once registered you will be tracked and a credit score will be generated on you. If you have ever been in a store where someone is purchasing something with a credit card they will always ask, "cuantos quotas", meaning how many payments do you want to make for your purchase. I know that might sound pretty strange, because in the USA you can decide when you get your credit card bill what you want to do, but you will hear this question every time when someone uses a credit card to purchase something in Colombia.

Straight to the point like " hey, I need a companion for a day and will pay you 350 k to show me around and have some fun". Or less subtle like " Wow you are beautiful. Want someone to show me around."
Best,
And damn I see a lot of playa's on here so please put me on to game.

That's all. Quick and easy, the less said the better.
Then, once there-let people no you are there and ready.
I would start with casas and strip clubs if possible. Or the Mansion.
Messaging more than a few days before arrival is just wasting time.
With all due respect your advice is obviously well intended and thoughtful but I have say that as far as Facebook goes, you have to keep in mind that BlackCrystal is completely new to the scene. Its not like three days before I go to Colombia I just search "prepago" and a magic list appears. If a person wants to be having sex with the hottest chicas in Medellin than waiting until the last minute to start finding contacts is not a good strategy unless someone is spoon feeding them to you. It is best not to actually contact the chicas and set up citas until a few days before going down, but it took me about a month to get a list of twenty "hot" chicas together on Facebook that I knew would respond.

I'm going to have to assume that if the Police are going to fine someone they enter it in their database / record for the persons Cedula, and don't know how they handle this for foreigners. The fine amount is roughly the Country's monthly minimum salary and seems out of proportion, and I see the Government having a hard time collecting the fines in that a lot of people don't have a months salary of savings let alone bank accounts.
Hopefully things will get better with no more lockdowns and the issue your grappling with will disappear. And when you think about it, the girls willing to see you must be very desperate and it's sad that they have to take the risks associated with visiting you.

Nonetheless, if your errand requires a taxi rather than a walk around the corner, you're probably well advised to stick to your designated shopping day.
In respect to shopping during the Friday-Sunday 24 hour / day lockdown, here's a roughly translated quote in El Tiempo from the governor of Antioquia, Luis Fernando Surez: "On whether you can enter supermarkets to stock up, Surez clarified that these large stores will not be able to open and will only be able to provide services through a mobile application or homes."
Every time I have gone into the Laureles Exito or the Exito in Molinos CC, the security person checks my ID before allowing me to enter. There is no check when entering the shopping centers because restaurants and some other establishments are not subject to pico y cedula. Even the little D1 stores check ID's. I have seen them turn away locals who did not have the proper number.
The Laureles Exito has been open for customers to shop the past two weekends during the lockdown.

Yea, totally, at least for me mongering has helped a lot with work as i don't need to set up dinner dates etc. to try and get "lucky" with non-pros as often. gotta love pros. and surfer, I was already married and divorced, maybe have kids in the later years but yes, kid in a candy store (with the candy being 20 why / o vennies!
It seems as if even the locals don't know how the new decrees work, but for those of you on the ground / recently here, how was / is total confinement?
It seems as if all 6 major regions are working in tandem now with restrictions, with curfew being 8 pm-5-am mond-wed / thurs and total lockdown from thurs-Sunday until at least may 2nd.
Total lockdown being literal confinement in the apartment? Not even able to catch a cab to visit a mileroticos or prepagos girl? If so, that's going to fucking suck for my upcoming trip hahahha.
I'm thinking a good alibi would be to carry a backpack and plane ticket, if you get pulled over you're just "going to the airport".
I can work around the curfews and get the love making in during the day.
Cheers.
JW.

FYI, the official fine for violating the curfew (and the other restrictions) is a whopping 900 thousand pesos and change. (Spanish readers can check this link: https://colombia.as.com/colombia/202...70_476287.html#text=La%20 or

During WhatsApp texting to set up visits, I've made sure that the invited lady really feels comfortable venturing out during the forbidden hours. Of my core stable of four chicas, three have visited during the curfews, while just one has demurred (a Venezuelan with cdula issues). I've had some second thoughts as to whether it's right for me to allow them to risk the fine, but horniness and lust has trumped any moral imperative.
