Prepaid Debit Card In Pesos?

[asador]

Is there a way to get one in BA without a bank account? I'd like to avoid carrying a lot of cash. I'm talking about something similar to the cards you can buy at any US supermarket.

I once heard that BBVA Frances did something like that. No idea if they still do nor the requirements etc.

Do you mean this one? I'd be interested, too!

Is this card available only for BBVA clients or for anyone that walks in?

Who knows! It's 6 PM on a Friday. If you can't speak Spanish, try calling BBVA hotline. Or wait 'til Monday like the rest of us.

This is good, thanks. It looks like the BBVA card is available to all, not just account holders: "Si no sos cliente de BBVA Francés, te esperamos en la Sucursal que te resulte más cómoda. Conocé nuestras sucursales haciendo click aquí"

please let us know, if some non-client , no DNI person was able to get it? its a damn useful thing to have.

You cannot not be an optimist, live in Argentina and remain in your right mind.
