    Brou Banco Republica-Day Trip Colonia

    Anyone doing banking with Banco Republica in Colonia? My main branch is in Montevideo, but it's clearly easier to go to Colonia. I even called BROU to confirm no paros/feriados that day and the things I need to accomplish at the branch. I got their blessing. Hopefully it works. The same day...
