Quick question, can I withdraw money from a local bank here from my Bank in the States. Are there any fees they charge?
Thank You

These are the Wells Fargo Charges. Both Banco Popular and Banreserva have an ATM use charge in addition. I opened an account with Bank of America at home and withdraw at Scotia Bank in the DR without charges as Tamborista said.A little more info
I bank with Wells Fargo in the States
I want to do this with the local Banco Popular in Boca Chica( I do not have an account with them here)
Would the Banresevas Bank here be any better?
Thanks again

•Wells Fargo will assess a $5 fee for ATM cash withdrawals made outside the United States and an International Purchase Transaction fee which is a 3% of the transaction amount fee for each purchase made with your Debit Card in a foreign currency that has been converted into a U.S. dollar amount by a network.
Let me clarify---I cannot use my ATM cards, I need to go into a bank.

If you have a card with Visa or Mastercard logo which allow cash advances you can get cash from the teller. Each card has it's own fee schedule , but again, most charge a transaction fee plus a percentage of the cash advance. Some Amex cards also allow cash advances. You are not going to be able to go into a bank and make a straight withdrawal from a US account.Let me clarify---I cannot use my ATM cards, I need to go into a bank.
