Yep, I agree... like paying a middleman!Originally Posted by Bnewb
Ya...but my point is...you don't have to bring US currency as a Canadian or a Brit ect...just bring your own countries currency and exchange for Jamaican currency.
Why spend the time and extra fees exchanging to another countries currency (CAD to US) first?
Obviously, everyone takes Jamaican currency here...
Go Bills!
For years I used the Cambio but in the last couple I learned the Negril bank machines take debit and the rates are great. Limit your withdrawals to 30000J and you only pay one service charge. I have also found that the machine in the bank at the Sunshine plaza had the best rate.
Not talking about exchanging Can. To US and then to Ja.
I was referring to the travellers who Do not wish to use Ja currency and prefer one they are familiar with.
What I was trying to get across was if that is your intent Canadian currency is not readily accepted on the street level.
Would never suggest conversion from can$ to us$ and then to ja$
