MORE PESOS FOR YOUR DOLLAR

For anyone sending money to novias or family of, the exchange rate is getting very good. It is currently over 2500 cop / US dollar.

  Definitely cool...

I send COP through Western Union to my lady to help with expenses and it sure helps when the exchange goes higher! More $ = more  :-* for me. That works!  :)

I heard some people put away some dollars last year when it hit bottom and are now exchanging and making some cash.... ;) Good for them

But some places like WU will not exchange dollars to pesos because it is not good deal.

2507 to be exact. At least that's what Dolex was paying today. Pivery, what are you doing still using Western Union? Many (probably all) of the other services give a better rate and charge a lower fee. Investigate, go to the Latin part of your town and look for signs in the grocery stores and/or check cashing places. 

Now, some guys like to send their lady ATM card, either for the convenience or to get a slightly better rate and  lower fees, but there is a possible problem with that. If she tries to take out more money than the account has, some banks (Wells Fargo, in particular, which is why we no longer do business with them) will authorize the ATM to give out money anyway and then will hit you with a huge overdraft fee.  P.S.- No matter how much you 'trust' her, don't give her the ATM card to the account where your payroll direct deposit goes, or for that matter, even a different account at the same bank. Need I explain why?
