k so i have about 1,300,00 in yen which is about 1.3grand in USD
Usually when i exchange currency i get charged a lot and makes me sad.
i was wondering if banks like bank of america do currency exchange without charging service?
also if not, what is the best place to go?
thanks

but then again right now the 100yen=1dollar which is very good
let me know

Nobody does currency exhanges without some form of charge. Either they sneak it in your overall account fee, or they'll do the exchange a rate which favours them.

However, if you're already paying that account fee, doing the exchange won't cost you more. Guaranteed, banks, particularly if you're a member, cost less than a commercial exchange.

okay thanks man, ill have to check with bank of america i guess.
or i might wait until the yen gets stronger
thanks

BoA FTMFL!

Grrr...don't get me started with their backhanded, shady, tactless, shameless, infuriating, greedy, corporate policies.

If you have a AMEX card I believe you can go out to there stores and do the exchange for a small fee or free.

Uh oh. I just signed up with them..

I hate BOA due to their rude customer support. Not friendly at all. I guess because my saving balance is so low and insignificant that customers like me don't mean **** to them.

I hear horror stories of BOA. Maybe you should try Wells Fargo, which is the 2nd if not the 1st largest bank in America. Me? I just bank at credit unions, can never go wrong with them unless you travel a lot. I just pay fees when I go places and swipe my card because I can give two $#!ts sometimes. Or carry a buttload of cash (just by that I mean over what I need) when I leave out of town. Just don't pick up any strange women or ladies don't pick up strange men, because they might rob ya.

x a million. I hate BofA. To draw from pressure2, et al, BofA FTMFBBQL!!!

Tell us how you really feel love. jk

Oh man seriously, I could really go on and on about BofA. I think CAMAricer summed it up pretty well though. Actually he hit it right on the head except to say that they're also doodie heads. Eff them and eff the Feds for bailing out doodiehead corporate bankers.

I work for bank of america and they are a bit shady at times. I just do work with personal credit cards so if anybody needs help let me know I wouldnt tell anybody to go to them for checking or savings though, really not the best service.

the bank of america near my home is covered with hot asian girls right off the boat so i like it !!!!
do u have any good secrets like the cash maximizer???
though i know BOA are greedy people, i just bank with them....bc im gay =p
