Chase Sapphire Credit card is amazing, the price seems high but it has many benefits including travel insurance.

Hola Matt! Yo tenía el mismo problema hasta que decidí abrir una cuenta de banco en pesos. Así me ahorro el mal sabor de que me cobren de más. Y me di cuenta que los bancos en México ofrecen más intereses en inversión porque ya tienen competencia del Banco del Bienestar. Saludos

Claro, y los intereses que ofrecen los bancos aquí son muy buenos (tenemos una cuento con Intercam), pero me gusta usar mi tarjeta de Chase con cosas grandes (caros) porque ofrece alguna seguridad en caso de que el producto no funcione bien.

There’s always a damn learning curve. We use the bank 🏧 and avoid your mentioned overcharges. Then we pay cash for everything. If I remember the 15th and 30th of each month are very busy at the banks. Those may be paydays? There is more security those days,I’m not sure if that is good or bad. I usually do banking late morning in broad daylight.
