Yes, Internet banking of my us bank. Same day delivery (often half an hour). No limit. And the higher the wire the higher the difference. It's a simple calculation , fees by wire are roughly usd62 higher. Being 2700 pesos. Difference in exchange rate is 1.28 pesos/dollar, so below 2100 wire xoom is better, above 2100 bank wire is better. That's an improvement for xoom though, a while ago the switch point was at usd1800
need to upgrade to level 2 and that will allow $6000.00 per day.
I'm level 2, and the daily limit is the same, $2,999. My monthly and quarterly limits are higher. I do not believe the daily amount changes not matter how high a level you are. Unless I am mistaken. I cannot sent more than $2,999 at a time.

As per Xoom at level 2 you can send $2999.00 back to back in the same day........Rules do change.
SOMEONE send me $3,000 USD by XOOM, and I'll tell you how much the exchange rate was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Makes no difference to me. I can either send it to you, or my wife, either way I wont see any of it.
If you are American you can open a Charles Schwab on-line checking account. You can then use your Schwab debit card in any country to withdraw up to $1000 per day at an ATM. They rebate all ATM fees and there is no foreign transaction fee. Completely free. I have been using it for two years.

I thought that in the DR there is a daily limit of 10000.00pesos? How do you get around that?

I don't know anything about that. All I know is I go to the ATM and get money. I have withdrawn 40,000 pesos a day many times.

What is the exchange rate you get?

The rate is set daily and I get whatever the current exchange rate is that day. It is not like those other services where they screw you on the exchange rate. It is a simple ATM transaction with no fees of any kind.
The limit per withdrawal is determined by the bank of the atm and is often 10,000 pesos, the withdrawal limit per day depends on the bank your account is at, I set mine at usd1000, so I can withdrawal 43,350 per day if I want at today's rate of 43.35. The exchange rate used by the bank of the arm is the rate they buy dollars at and often extra charges apply, scotia bank for example charges 3% per withdrawal and no extra fee, others charge a % and a flat fee or only a flat fee.
At scotiabnk I noticed the rate they give you on Monday morning (and probably the weekend) at the atm is worse than the Friday before or the rest of the Monday, I guess to anticipate any abrupt rate change over the weekend. I'm not 100% sure if that gets fixed retroactively later during the day.

That's why I use Schwab. There are no fees. No ATM fees. No foreign transaction fees. Nada.

have to have a brokerage account with them as well
"Do I need to open a Schwab One brokerage account with my Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking account?
Yes. The Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking account is only available when linked to a Schwab One brokerage account. The two accounts may be opened at the same time. The two accounts will be linked, so you can easily transfer funds between them to meet both your investing and checking needs. While you're under no obligation to use the Schwab One brokerage account, you may find it very convenient. And, you can enjoy the benefits of investing with Schwab brokerage at no additional cost.
MA, I wouldn't let that info out!!!
