Guys,

This thread is just to share the exchange rate each day. Please use other threads for conversation.

If you are able, please list:

- the exchange rate you got (we assume you are changing USD into pesos, please state clearly if otherwise)
- the amount you changed (if it was relevant to the rate)
- the city/location

Adrian

Is that the place next to Eddys sport bar? They seem to have the best exchange rate.

They DO always have the best rate. Marc from Rockys directed me there once and I have gone back there ever since. I am not sure how many people know about that place.

Eurobank

The change bank near Eddy's is the Eurobank (571-2125)
I believe that Vimenca is the Western Union office in the Bommarito building accross from the main Playero supermarket on the highway.

Places with good rates

I've found that agencia de cambio at caribe bus station and vimenca usually have the better/higher exchange rates.

I've also notice that the black market is not so popular...hard to find.

I've visited jamaica and it was easy to find people on the black market....they alway offer higher than the legal market offer...but in the DR when someone is willing to exchange on the black market it is usually less

Good Try!!!!!!!!!!!

Adrian B!

I think it was a very good idea!!!!! ....too bad it didn't work.

Maybe someone can make a forum with limited fields for the purpose of posting money rates only, as per your suggestion.
