Great rates. Friendly operator. Now extra fees. No hassle. Just know that cash or check are the only acceptable forms of payment.

I first found out about this exchange through Google maps. I read the reviews and called to check the opening hours. The owner answered and was very friendly and informative. A few days later, I went over. When I got off the bus there was another exchange right by the bus stop, so I checked it out. The teller was unfriendly and gave me a bad rate. So I kept going. When I arrived at A Plus, the same man was my teller (I recognized his voice). He was very friendly again and gave me a very good rate. Very satisfied. thanks

Polite, professional person answered the phone and guided me towards a coin dealer since they couldnt help me. Very nice of him to help me anyway and direct me to another business!

I was looking to do a currency exchange for Tanzanian Shillings. I had gone to other places including my bank and got simple “no”s. Who ever I talked to looked to see if he could get it, which he couldn’t, gave me the exchange rate if I could somehow find it, found out the reasoning behind the difficulty getting them, and researched to find out that I was better off with using US currency any way. Best service I’ve had in a long time for not even doing business. Really nice and helpful.

Never thought something so simple like exchanging money could be so enjoyable.The guy who took care of me, Moe, was amazingly kind and the had good vibes. Even better, got a great rate for Pesos for my trip to Mexico City.Great service, exceptional rates and a business truly worthy of its name - A Plus from me!

Have used APlus Exchange many times over the years, obtaining many different currencies, Their rates of exchange have consistently been the best. In addition they do not charge a transaction fee. They have always been pleasant to deal with

Been there a couple times now. Have exchanged multiple currencies. They say they dont charge commission (then how do they make money?), but the numbers never seem to match with either Google or Forex calculations. Why?

Just exchanged dollars for yen this morning. The official rate on the web today is 111.25 yen to 1 USD. At A+ I got 105.54 to the dollar. No other charges. I thought this was a very fair rate as they have to support a bricks and mortar business. Quite friendly guy showed me all the conversion calculations before any money changed hands. Took 3-4 minutes. I’ve dealt with A+ before, with similar good results, but not for several years. As others have noted, be aware they have moved from the old under-the-garage site to a 4th floor room in a building just up the same street. They have a sandwich board on the sidewalk for guidance. Easy parking in 4th street structures.

Easy and convient. They screw you on the exchange rate though. They take about a 10% cut, it’s messed up. Definitely a business.

I recently visited. Usually my experience is extremely smooth but, the last time I was given some misinformation from an attendant who was obviously misinformed. She told me that Western Union had got rid of the test question option. I contacted Western Union, who speedily answered, and said Ryan, we do not have any update on our policies regarding the test question. Letting me know that at no time had they made any changes to there policies in relation to the test question and said that they would contact this location and correct the situation and if theyre was any confusion said We do apologize for all the hassle that you have been through with our service, Maya. Please make sure the amount to be sent next time is lower than $300 USD, so you can cash it with the Tes Question only. Agents will not pay on the Test Question alone for amounts over $299,99 USD.Flag this message Delete this messageWestern UnionPlease do not hesitate to contact us at anytime you need it, we are here to help you. to indicate again, that they hadnt gotten rid of the test question option and the only restriction was the amount of money that youre able to receive when using the Test Question. I thought it was important to put this here, just in case anyone incurs this problem. I authorize you to print this out and take it with you. Im sure that theyve contacted this branch. But, you never know when someone will be there that hasnt been informed. Hopefully, everyone, even the people at that branch see this as a constant reminder so that no one else has these kind of issues. Otherwise, Ive had an amazing experience at this Western Union branch and I look forward to continuously using Western Union, who were very helpful.
