If the name or account number of the beneficiary on the transfer form don`t match the name of the actual account holder, the funds are normally returned within 2 to 3 days. I am guessing the problem lies in Argentina as Argentine bank employees are often incompetent, arrogant and indifferent...

I am guessing many people would move their money offshore before buying government bonds. It will be a shame if the government does anything to harm the real estate market, as it creates so much spin off economic activity.

I wonder if certain groups from Brazil are going to start to move to Argentina ? IE: I am given the impression (correct?) that times could be very very rough for the LGBTQ community in Brazil.

I think it`s wonderful to see young Porteños having their final "one for the road" - while I`m have breakfast !

I think when comparing safety in US vs. Argentina, one has to consider more specific locations and lifestyles. Safety varies from city to city and barrio to barrio. Some walk the streets late at night, others stay cocooned in a car in the suburbs, using a remote control to enter the garage.

My impression is the owners are better off if the tenant is willing to pay the Airbnb commission (15.6%) as the owners are better protected against trying to evict a dead beat tenant.

That is such a contrast from cerca 2003 when locals would tell me voluntarily they thought W. Bush was a dangerous, war mongerer and perhaps insane.

Forgive me, but I can`t help but wonder whether the changes might be aimed more at people with darker skin ?

Lol. I am referring to the general dislike of Trump by people who are not from the US.

I look upon Buenos Aires as rather like the New York City of South America. New York City was in terrible shape in the 1970´s. It was dangerous, no longer "the place" to be and verging on bankruptcy. It recovered and people became willing to pay more and more to be there. Now it appears...

The price was lowered since I posted this yesterday. In addition, at first glance, the rent shown is in Mexican pesos. To clarify: In US$, the rent per night is US$100, US$560/week and US$2280/month.

Could it be that Argentines are concerned about the IMF currently, which they associate with the US ? I also wonder whether the general dislike of President Trump is a factor (though I don`t know of Trump insulting Argentines yet) ?

I share the opinions of the 2 posts above this post, but I am very sorry that you both also got ripped off by those jerks.

I have that same impression !

They returned the funds to my bank in Mexico. My bank in Mexico contacted me, saying to come pronto, to accept the funds, which I did. I don`t have a ·US$ account in Mexico, so I had to convert the money into Mexican pesos. All in all, the attempted transfer to my BBVA/Banco Frances account cost...

I got the funds I wired in June to my BBVA/Banco Frances account, returned to me finally ! I believe the return was in response to a letter that BancoFrances asked me to send them, which I did. The bonus was that the bank had not converted my funds to ARS, so I didn`t lose on the devalutation...

Thanks so much Kookaburra ! That is good to know ! At the moment, I wonder if the bank was just wanting to use my money to get interest. They seemed not to want me to know the transfer had arrived, but didn`t have questions about the origin of the money.

Yes, I will talk to the person at my branch first, since I cannot contact the number shown online for Foreign Commerce (darn toll free numbers !). I will keep you posted. I am most grateful to have you and this group helping me ! If it weren`t for you folks, I would have believed Banco Frances...
