As some of you know, I am moving to Santo Domingo in a few weeks. I plan to open a bank account there, however, I intend to keep the majority of my cash where it is in a bank in NY. I am hoping I will be able to by-pass the hassle and expense of wire transfers by simply writing a check from myself to myself from my account in the NY bank and depositing it into the account in SD. Is this feasible and if not, what is a safe and convienent way for me to transfer the money. Also, considering the option of withdrawing directly from my NY bank via ATM, what positive or negative experiences has everyone had using this method.
