How to transfer money to DR safe and cheap?
Need to transfer a larger sum from Europe to finance my apartement here.
I know there's a limit on about 10 000 USD to take in personally by plane, so how do I transfer?
I have opened an account in dollars at Citibank, but they will charge a lot for only "receiving" the money from my bank, 0,004 i.e 40 USD per 10 000 USD sent. Are transferring money with Western Union safe, and would it be cheaper? Any other alternatives? I will go home to "send the money". If I get some kind of cheque from my bank, I guess the banks here needs some days to process it, or? We are short of time.
