It's so comforting to see this question asked every month.

I see it as a good thing (regardless of what our favorite complainer thinks of it) because it's more money flowing into this country by more English speaking foreigners who typically come with Eros, Dollars or Pound Sterling.

Would it help putting a thread like this as a sticky and linking migration website?

Take a screenshot of the newest list - post 6 - and save it for reference. Is what I told my friend the over-stayer… I sense the ghost of wind man.

18 – 24 MONTHS RD $8,000​

24 – 30 MONTHS RD $9,500​

30 – 36 MONTHS RD $11,000​

$120US a year, mas o meno. A bargain in my book. Cheaper than residency I would think.

funny, I left yesterday, family in front of me paid in cash, my turn, I pull out 3500 and she says only credit cards, WTF?? Oh, its the DR, jijiji

Tell them you only have cash....If you take the chance of using a bank card, they can show you the computer screen and it says $126 dollars, then when they use your card they add $500 dollars... thats what happened to me, now my card company will get my money back...when they only took cash every day was pay day, with bank card not so much..............

Is the sum not visible on the terminal screen when you pay with card and on the receipt?
