Chase Bank, a real way to get Fucked!

[Jimmydr]

$3 bank charge plus a 3.5% int'l charge. I took out $90 and paid $6.20 extra. :(

[knotty]

i never paid attention to that. i always use my ATM card there, never looked at the charge.

[Beads]

Damn Jimmy you did get fucked! Did you get the bank teller lady all upset or something?

[Tonto4]

Cash is King in the DR.

I had to put $3.52 on my CC to cover my car rental and they put on over $7 in fees!

[Jimmydr]

Paypal is the way to go. No hidden fees.

[guttaman]

I use a small local bank atm card and pay $1 fee and get top rate. Even in Tokyo i got a better rate than the exchange house. Chase bank sucks cock in hell !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Commerce Bank says they'll pay any and all ATM fees worldwide. The only drawback is that you have to have an average daily balance of at least $2,500.

[guttaman]

What kind of draw back is that. If you do not have 5 g in the bank for funny money then stay home.

[Dick Dawson]

I was talking in general. Lots of people seems to have trouble keeping money in the bank.

Chase is fucking everyone world wide. I was in Brussels for two weeks. They hit me every time I took some money out ... AND ... they closed my over draft without notice and charged me $128 fot three overdrafts that I know nothing about ... Then they refused to reopen it. Assholes #1

JDR, I am surprised at you! What happened to PayPal?

I used PayPal last trip and got 31.14:1 plus the $1 service charge. Tutti Frutti was giving 32:1.

Don't feel too bad. I had used PNC debit card on a previous trip and got screwed for the same fees. You don't know till you get home and check your online balance as it takes a few days to process. Don't even think about using a credit card, they really shove it up your ass.

Paypal seems to be the most hassle free way to go.

the scotia bank in sosua is NOT really connected to OUR scotia bank...they play by DR rules and there is a, large?, fee to withdraw from the ATM.

i would not put any $$$ in a DR bank unless you would be ok with losing it all.

search www.dr1.com (http://www.dr1.com) for way more info.

i have Washington Mutual and dont use it anywhere but there or Signature bank which is near my job and doesnt charge fees... I dont use credit or bank/atm cards in DR... I carry Cash!!

[Bug Boy]

For the guys who don't like to use ATMs what is wrong with the old fashioned American Express Travelers Checks?

Some banks issue them free if you have an account and others charge a fee. Either way it is better than losing some cash.

[BrooklynBeas]

i think Judy will cash them too...

True, and the Hotels don't have a problem with them as long as they are in $USD.

You usually don't get the same exchange rate as cash but it is only about 1 or 2 Pesos difference, at least that was my experience

Chase has a 2 point difference. Paypal has no difference.
