Dollars to Pesos Talk

       a. We would like to have any information on cashing American express traveler's checks in Los Barriles or Cabo (preferably Los Barrilies. Thank you. Send answers to bajaponyexpress3@gmail.com

       b. Sylvia had a post yesterday and I asked her which bank does she use. There is the answer, Cheryl
I use Marshall and Isley Bank, it has branches all over the country, and is based out of Milwaukee. My account is in Sedona, and they give it all back to me when I use my debit/credit card throughout Mexico and any other foreign country. Not only that its a rewards card, so, at the beginning of the month they give me cash rewards on top of that for using the card. I only need to keep a minimum of $500 between checking and savings, and I am home free. Hasta la pronto, Sylvia

       c. I didn't see any comments on money exchanged at the Banamex Bank in Los Barriles.

Friday, friends visiting from Boston went in (on their own - and they have no account there) and exchanged $400.00 US dollars each into Pesos with their passports.

They took a number to see the regular cashiers and each gave the max. the bank allowed per person, $400.00 USD. The bank gave them Pesos and did scan their passports, but that was all.

I don't know if they can do $400.00 every day or what - but they can at least do $400.00 once.

Don't know about travelers checks. We have had friends exchanging money (US Dollars to Pesos) all this year at Banamex without any problems.
Cheers,
Sherri & Bob
