Foreign Exchange Sun City Changing Forex has always been expensive at Sun City & Pilanesberg areas. The Hotel and Lodge receptions have a set rate, normally 15% less than the middle rate. The Resorts do not change.
Alternatives are;
@Sun City - I checked in March 2016 when the US$ rate was 15,33;
1. Cashiers desk at Sun City Hotel - flat rate of 14,14, so 7,8%
2. Bidvest desk at Welcome Centre - buying rate is middle rate - 2.1% + Vat, so 14,96. Take off this a fee of R72 +Vat, so R82. So this works out equal on US$ 100 to the cashiers desk. For anything over S100 it thus pays to change here, and for less than $100 change at the Cashiers desk
3. Standard Bank Sun Village - works out to about 5,5%, but there is a minimum charge and it can take you an hour.Better than the alternatives is to withdraw from an ATM
I'm sure the %'s are the same, will update at current rates this month & post - March 2018
