Withdrawing US$ from BanInter

If you dont have it in your contract - it constitutes breach of contract, I would say it is fraud also.

I was waiting 3 weeks to get my money from CD in Baninter, I have to scream in that bank so oher customers hear it, then I tratened them to file criminal charges, then after 3 weeks I got it in check, but I was cheated by $4000 on interest.

I have to listen different lies every day for 3 weeks, wait in the bank every day many hour for 3 weeks, they just lought in your face, when they have your money.....

You request that they transport the money to branch in Sosua.

I was complaining to Superintendente de Bancos, but they are just protecting the banks.

I believe that there is a shortage of US Dollars in the DR at the moment.

Don't know for certain, but I believe jazzcom is right. One of the risks that come with the interest paid in the DR is that you might not be able to withdraw your dollars when you want them if dollars are scarce and/or the government is low in foreign reserve. The money isn't lost, but withdrawal may be delayed.

Interest is still due even though you asked for your money and havent received it until the day you receive the money. Dont panic.

Many of us have alluded that there is risk due to the unenforceability of the law without connections. As they say, "There is no law".

To their defense, I have to say, that I went to cancel my CD in US$ and received the check the following day without any problems...

Were you able to cash the check or deposit it for available U.S. Funds in a Bank in the U.S. or other country with US$ bank accounts?
