I read here last week that said it was illegal in Mexico to charge you in Dollars only. Where they must show the Pesos price & to pay in pesos
when you can so they don’t screw you with their exchange rate. This weekend I hung out at Rosarito Beach/Puerto Nuevo and paid EVERYTHING with my
credit card. What a difference! I am doing this from now on, even with the 3% bank fee it’s a deal! However I noticed while looking at my receipts
that one of the establishments charged me in Dollars at their exchange rate ($1-14), instead of charging me in Pesos. I assume that is a loophole they
use to still get their Dollar price… is that legal for them to do??
I feel i may have been scammed. |
