wow. 285 on western union! i wish i made some transfers... man. will it continue to go lower?!

Yea, 308. So you can start a transfer then cancel if you don't pick it up?

Wow. I transferred $200 yesterday at 300.... seeing those numbers now makes me realize its better to do a little each day.

Curious - how do I put money into my mercado pago account? Do I go to Pago Facil and give them pesos? I have yet to add pesos to my account - would like to learn how! Thanks!

I went to a travel agency yesterday and the person there bought me the ticket and I handed him cash. Best is to just have a friend here in argentina order online for you and hand him the cash. IF you dont have a debit card here.

Does anyone use mercado pago and western union? Is it possible to transfer direct?

I had to create a new account... and it worked.

Thanks - bizzare. Tried 2 debit cards. 3 credit cards. Nothing. Worked great the first time yesterday.

Anybody else getting this? "We’re sorry, we couldn’t complete your transfer using the payment method you selected. To continue with your transfer, please select one of the below options"

Thanks. I may just go to the airport and see.. its JetSmart so I'm concerned I can't even buy at the office. Crazy how difficult things can be. The ticket is only 50k pesos. But the difference is 200 usd whether I pay cash or not. Side note. I got 1 to 297 pesos yesterday on western union...

Thanks. I'm actually waiting to be approved for a debit card here w/ brubank... until then its all cash... but I have a flight I want to book ($300 current vs $100 blue) and pay with my blue rate... the issue is I can't pay online until I get the debit card. I'm thinking of trying to find a...

Question. Maybe a dumb one. When I pay via my credit or debit card from the US... what rate am I getting? Is it the 223? or the 123 i see in google ?

Can the code be used more than once per account? or is it a one time thing?

Can the debit card be used anywhere? Stores, etc? And have you transfered money from WU to your account?

Okay, thanks all! I will open an account then. I just need to decide on a bank! @Millie How long does it take to get an actual debit card?

@Millie Thanks! What benefits do you see from opening an account? And which bank? Thanks!

I'm currently living in BA and wondering if there is any benefit to opening a bank account here in Argentina? I have a DNI and dual citizenship in both USA and Argentina. I was thinking it might be nice to put money in a local bank account and be able to use a debit/credit card here in...

Thanks! If using my Argentina passport to enter - are there any additional requirements in regards to covid testing?

I am dual citizen - USA and Argentina. I plan to visit soon and stay for 3-4 months... Should I enter and leave with my Argentina passport?

I'm a dual citizen - US/Argentina. I tend to visit Argentina quite often and enjoy staying in the city for extended periods of time. I usually rent a furnished airbnb for 3-7 months in Palermo (costs me 1-2k per month) but can't help to think what it would be like if I owned my own condo as I...
