Those who have been to the DR previously will have read all this before, but for the benefit of first-time visitors I am posting this link to a post on DR1. This is not an isolated post as similar happenings are frequently being reported, also wrong amounts dispensed or indeed nothing dispensed but still charged.
My advice is to use your international credit/debit cards to draw pesos INSIDE the bank at the teller counter. This also obviates the common problem of the ATM "eating" your card. You will require your passport to achieve this.
Obviously this requires sufficient forethought to draw cash during bank opening hours but I am sure that is not beyond the wit of our highly intelligent members.
