Thanks, Alex, I wanted to be sure that people didn't come away with the idea that using anything other than a Citi card in a Citi ATM would get them a large number of pesos in a single transaction.

I should also mention that even if your bank appears to have an Argentine namesake, you will most likely be restricted (and charged according to your bank aggrement) because they will use either the Banelco or LINK network - e.g. HSBC and Santander Rio.

Does anybody have experience with using BNP Paribas ATMs in Argentina? Does the waiver of ATM charges from cards of affiliate banks (e.g. Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, etc.) apply to Argentina, or only to France?
