Cashing Checks With Judy

[ilikenyacional]

It will come to you soon ! It's not rare here(Québec). Well organized gang with all the techno stuff : false card-slot, false keyboard, mini-camera, etc. They make a ton of money. And it happens at any hour of the day, even in front of the surveillance cameras.

It's not uncommon for people here to have 5-10 000$ credit line on the ATM card. So, when they get your info, bingo!

The banks cover the losses. When it will cost them too much, maybe they will put a more secure system.

The First World is the private world of WSJ3 and Remy.

Cash on hand and travelers checks are good. If you are in with some of the other exchange places, then you could cash almost anything without ID, etc....those who are known of course.

For those who come down frequently as I do, I'd suggest opening a Banco Santo Cruz account due to its open network in the states...easier to transfer money back and forth, etc. Plus there is no dollar minimum requirement anymore.

Judy's uses them...you can not go deathly wrong!

There is not a problem cashing Travelers Checks in the DR, although some places (not many) will try to charge you a few or give you a lower exchange rate.


Niote: This thread is over 2 years old and refers to a specific location in Sosua that cashes personal checks. I'm not sure of the situation at that place today.
