I am sure your grandparents, like many others were of good intent. Criminal immigration to the America's to escape persecution -usually political, religious or criminal is very well documented. Of course the definition of criminal is difficult here as in Francoist Spain many Republicans that...

I know what the proposed decree says. That was not my point. I referred to your comment and question your apparent lack of support for due process, as you "didn't care" whether a judge was involved. But you are welcome to clarify or to change your statement.

Does it matter where I come from? And I don't think we can find a lot of people who would like to welcome a convicted criminal. Though many of the first immigrants in Argentina actually were criminals. And many criminals seem to populate the judicial and political system here as well, with...

Yeah, I never understood why there is such a thing as due process and equality before the law. They should arbitrarily apply law in any situation if you ask me, makes for awesome societies.

Never had insurance here and only used the public system. Yeah you have to wait but you get the best doctors in the country. Had an appendicitis and was on the operating table of the Rivadavia on Las Heras in under 30 minutes. Full recovery in a day, no complications and an amazing staff. Had a...

Anybody know one? I am @ Julian Alvarez y Cordoba. Thanks.

I am not receiving any type of mail anymore since december. That includes even christmas and birthday cards. Anybody else having the same problem?

Hey everyone, We are a young multimedia production house that has been working mainly for the Dutch and Belgian media market. But as we are expanding we've decided to leave behind working from our monoambientes and having our meetings in noisy coffee places and get an office. Thing is office...

I would recommend you to go to calle Libertad with Av Corrientes. There are some specialized photography stores and I have always been helped very professionally there. Don't know about the price of fixing your lens though, depends on the malfunction (have a Canon 650D myself). But don't be...

Thanks so far for sharing your experiences. I do not have a job with an Argentine company as I am a correspondent for Dutch media. I'll try with some banks and see what happens. Thanks!

Any permanent resident here got one? Which bank? What did it take? Thanks, Peter

Hey, just to add my five cents: I've had an emergency open appendectomy just two weeks ago. Went to the public hospital Rivadavia on Las Heras, as I lack any form of health insurance. I've never been treated, and attended to, better in my life. The Argentine doctors and nurses were very...

I actually did find two companies but because I am an individual they don't offer service to me. Not even when I told them price is not an obstacle and that they will be payed cash US Dollars on the spot. Call me Dutch but Argentines are horrible, horrible businessmen. ;-)

thanks but we're talking 50-100Mb/sec upload speeds. They don't offer that ;-)

Hey guys, I am a Dutch journalist and need to send 10Gb of video to the TV station on monday. It needs to be there within 24hrs. I've tried to look for a courier service but none offer 24hs service to Amsterdam. Do any of you know a corporate, special, provider of super high-speed broadband to...

reason is quite simple actually and economically completely verifiable. 1. Like the article in Cronista says it's actually the government that is providing dollar liquidity by paying out interest on dollar denominated bonds. Thus a sudden high supply of dollars eases the price. 2. The BCRA has...

Thank you all for sharing your stories. Seems you all have plenty of time to keep complaining about the government, the president, the police, the long waiting, the US government, the dollar, the police, the corruption, the federal reserve. What about the weather?

Argentina actually has an equal marriage law meaning that a marriage can involve two people of the opposite or the same sex. Thus marriage can involve no women at all if it's between two men :)

Weird HOP, that it worked with Santander but not with BBVA Francés... Maybe Nikad is right although we have been able to pay online before (in dollars) with the same creditcard. I'll try again tonight with a lower amount to see what happens... Oh and dipoots: I didn't send it from my own cc...

VISA with Banco Francés. Tried 500 EUR. To much?
