Cambio ID questions

[Kevin, PA]

Good to know. Glad I wasn't asked for ID because I don't believe I had an ID one me when we exchanged money.

I changed money many times in the last 2 years at the Cambio across from Times Square and was never asked for ID and never carried ID. When the Cambio was closed there were money changers around that offered a little bit less. I sometimes changed with them so they could make a few bucks but was not short changed.

I exchange my money at the Cambio beside Scotia Bank or at the Cambio inside HiLo and has always been asked for my ID/Drivers License.

I think if you are exchanging over $100us you have to show it.

The $100 might be the trigger but not necessarily. I've been told at both the cambio downtown & at HiLo that you only need to show your ID once a year so you're "in the system". After that, not needed. I usually carry mine regardless. When I automatically showed ID while changing $$$, I was told the one time info.

Why not use the ATM? You get better rates and dont have to carry your passport around?

I have been here in Negril for a week now and been to the cambio 3 times, never was asked for ID and one time I was changing $200.
