How do you pay someone in Argentina?
 

I need to make a payment to someone in Argentina, but there seems to be no method of payment...

Banks will steal his money, paypal won't let him sign up, checks or cash in an envelope will be opened as soon as they enter Argentina... so how would you pay a guy down there?

I guess he works for free?? :Graucho

Send them coffee beans or rice...:winkwink:

free work :thumbsup

Try Western Union.

Not such a stupid post. Share the knowledge.
:thumbsup

Use Western Union, hands down.

OR put a bag of rice, a bag of coffee and a
mexican prostitute on a small trained donkey, put
him on the US/Mexico border and yell *camine derecho, carajo!*

That kind of payment arrives in a year more or less, usually
you lose the prostitute half the way, but is the method of
payment i prefer.

If you´re in Europe, replace the donkey with a bird or a canoe.

But Western Union works via the bank... And that is another way to steal...

western union, either that or milo's method (works for him) :winkwink:

oh, or a check but fedex'ed, arrives in 3 days.

Send him food of course

western union is independent from our beloved banks and goverment. (thanks god)

Ohh, sorry please... I know few countrys where WU works via bank.

i have paid programmers by Western Union. It's good but it comes at a price, forget what the fees are but after the first two times I used it I started telling these foreign guys who only accept Western Union that the WU fees come off their check.

Pay them in Chickens and goats !

give him a donkey

A wire transfer to a bank should work fine. We've wired to all kinds of strange countries without problems.

Western Union has worked well for me sending payments to a few different places.

Other than that bank wires did the job as well.

:thumbsup

http://epassporte.com you silly goose, that's how you pay him :)

Why not bury the cash in a bag of rice and send it to him?

you shouldn't be worrying about how to pay him.
he should be worrying about how you'll pay him.

let him figure it out and tell you.

Western Union

Maybe the 'hand of god' will appear and take the money to him? (hmmm...the humour's probably not gonna work too well for those in the US. Oh well :) )

as Kimmykim said, epassporte

why would the banks steal his money?

Or send him a statue and plaster the money inside. It works in the movies.

:1orglaugh

ok, wihtout going into much detail, our dollar exchange rate was of 1:1 from around 1991, to 2001, our economy goes to the shitter in 2001 and the goverment decides to freeze all bank accounts and limit your withdrawal limit to $400 a week no matter how much you have in your account, at the same time the exchange rate goes from 1:1 to 1:3 (sounds stupid, i know)
so, simply speaking:

You have a bank account of 100k USD. Your money is hold hostage with a limit of 1200k a month withdraws, and at the same time it goes down from 100k USD to 30k USD (dollar/peso exchange)

who wants to move down here? :)

that's the best i can do to explain that crazy situation on a saturday night and drunk as Amp, milo might have a more logical answer :)

follow the news at all?
all of argentina is corrupt.

Western Union, but the costs are high for small amounts...

BULLSHIT!




It's just 99.99% :)

darling, pay him with epassporte, he can either take his money out of the system with atm or banks, or he can just buy what he wants using his brand new visa card number...

so simple, i can't believe you guys didn't see it...

Hello?

It's Argentina we're talking about, you can't open a paypal account, you can't open an epassporte account, international credit cards issued by banks in Argentina are now useless outside the country by national law.

Now if you can open an epassporte account for me i'd be eternally greatful. :thumbsup

with coconuts

no, we have an embargo on coconuts too.
try goats for a decent punchline. :321GFY

Just send the money to MiLo TurboNegro via western union and let him take care of it. He does it for me all the time.


:winkwink:








I want 25% of the money this time Milo, you only gave me 15% of the money from the last sucker that I sent to you.

I´m going to let go of this deal man, if found out that you´re actually using that cut of the money to pay for the international stalking phone calls to my sister.

It feels like financing terrorism :(

epassporte in Argentina? goood joke :)

Open an online Bank account

Send the atm card with DHL

IM him the pin

He can take the money out
of any atm machine at any corner 7-11

I've used fdsign before and they are located in Argentina - Western Union is no problem.

move to some other country

Do you REALLY think that there are 7-11's with little atm's with cash in them on any corner in ARGENTINA where you can just use your card like that?

I've been to countries where you can't use a credit card at all. I've been to countries where they didn't even have a decent telephone system...

All of the world isn't like that heaven you live in out there in California...

For Robert ... No time to write it in English too ...

Roberto , abrite una cuenta en Uruguay en algun banco privado , como Bank Boston y transferite la guita ahí .
Sino podes pedirles que te manden el cheque por Fed Ex y lo cobras en uruguay en cualquier cambio , te cobran el 1% del valor del cheque por cobrarlo .
O tercera opcion haces que te manden la Guita por Western Union a un cambio de uruguay y la cobras ahi ... Ahora que estamos en verano , te venis a Punta del Este , disfrutas de la playa y cobras la guita ...

Saludos , Pablo .
