$341.00 for $1 now, it's creeping up.. expect after 1-1 to be $350

note; tomorrow is (again) a national holiday, so i think some WU's will be closed

Has anyone tried picking up pesos at the WU in EZE airport? Is it possible or do they not have enough pesos to do a moderate (~$300) sized transaction?

In yesterday's transaction WU was 1 USD = 329.1000 ARS

One more reason to take advantage of the new credit card scheme. I used my VISA card to pay my monthly Hosp. Italiano bill the other day. That's a lot of cash "saved". I won't need WU and their fee as often or burn up dollars at a cueva.

Obviously if WU were to scrap the fees again that would be a game changer.

Hi how are you? I have hospital Italiano too, Can you elaborate on the advantages of paying with my USA visa credit card, I have a Argentina DNI, would that make a difference?
Thanks in advance

I initiated a WU transfer on Tuesday morning just after 1 AM. The funds were credited to my Santander account at about 5:30 in the afternoon.

There was only one time in the past three years that the funds were deposited on the second day.

I'm going on 4 days now waiting for a transfer. Seems to be hit or miss.

I got $327? It's now $337.25, so better for sure. CCL closed around ~$339 so I wouldn't hold my breath, though the blue is back to over $350 again
