thanks, what was the fee with the atm machine.... ive been to punta cana 3 times this year and now im going to luperon, which is near puerto plata. so you say that the check card works there no problem.
The fee with the ATM machine depends on what bank you have. So you need to call your bank and ask what fee they will charge.
Also, if you plan to use your debit card and credit card, let your bank know that you will be using them in the Dominican Republic.
Because I was using my credit card in Santiago and my credit card company put a stop to it because of security purposes (the credit card company thought that someone else was using my credit card).
I have never been to Luperon. So I cannot answer that questions (I do not want to give you an answer that might not be true). So hopefully someone can answer that.
But I never had a problem in Puerto Plata and Punta Cana.
