[Debconf-discuss] ATMs and money in Argentina



Just FYI: Since this year, many (all?) foreigners don't get more
than 600$..650$ (moon phase?) from ATMs (= 120..130 EUR or
200..215 U$S). Last year, problem did not exist. (AFAIK, Swiss
embassy asked for an explanation and the banks replied, it's a
government order, while the government said, the banks are the
culprits or something like that.)

Also, make sure, you always have small banknotes and coins for
paying small amounts like colectivos (local busses), as small
shops won't change 50$ (the one with Sarmiento, who said all
Indios should be killed) or 100$ (the one with Roca, who
actually killed the Indios) banknotes. In supermarkets or
restaurants, it's not a problem, however.
