I am sure many people already know this but a buddy of mine did not so I thought I would post. Sometimes getting dollars or any significant amount of dollars is difficult and expensive in BA. If you have an American Express Platinum or Centurion card, you can cash a personal check from out of Argenitna (US Acct for example or British Acct) for up to 5,000 USD a month at the American Express office in front of Plaza San Martin. Normal limits are 10k but Argentina limits it to 5k. They do not charge any fees and give you the cash right at the window. I have used this several times and it has been a life saver.
You must take your passport, Amex platinum or centurion card and checkbook.
I believe the limit for gold is 1,000
Hope this helps someone
