What is the best way to cash advance money with citibank ready credit in Korea without incuring large fees(admin, exc. rate fee). Need 10k SGD worth in KRW.
16th June depart, 17th June arrive. need 10K SGD in KRW by 18th.
Just changed a small amount at my neighbourhood at 1SGD: 790WON. The shop is opposite Hougang Bus Interchange beside Cheers. It is a very simple shop bcos they use a white board to list out the rate.
Here's the details for those who are interested and do not wish to travel to town.
Shop name: Wang Money Changer
Tel: 6455 2913
Blk 810 Hougang Central #01-214 Singapore 530810
this particular stretch of road, there is a few money changers here. i did not compare rates between them. so far i have visited 2 outlets, both right opposite the gates of the china embassy. (appear to have 2 gates in this stretch of road)
also note: google map is outdated, but it is this particular location
Leaving korea tomorrow, changed at 810 today only to realise the shop next door is offering 813...
Rates at korea does seems to be better than Singapore. Doesn't make sense to me before I travel, ended up changing much more than my friends in Singapore. Still doesn't make sense to me now...
