Not worth your time to come down and check as prices are different from their cashchanger website account even though it was update an hour ago! Save your time & money and go to a more reputable money charger!

Offering a great rate but no-one at the counter despite the lights being on. Left after 10 min

Check the rates properly, if your cash doesn't meet the minimum mark for their good rates they will give you a lower than average rate. Calculate your money properly, got scammed of $50

If only I could rate a NEGATIVE review! The guy inside was chatting happily on his phone while noting that I’m obviously standing in front of the counter. I waved and said “hello” for his service where he blatantly ignored me & carry on with his conversation. Never have I encounter such RUDE attitude from the service/FI industry! What a horrible staff u have! Smh

If only I could leave a negative review! The guy inside was chatting happily on his phone, even though I was clearly standing in front of the counter. I waved and said "hello" to get his attention, but he blatantly ignored me and carried on with his conversation. Never have I encountered such RUDE attitude from the service/FI industry! What a horrible staff you have! Smh

Please go to the MRT area to change money before coming to this shop.

Uncle is super nice and friendly. Fuss free transaction.
That day the chart online was SGD 1 : MYR 3.2
This money changer was SGD 1 : MYR 3.19 really not bad. I only changed $100 with that rate. Probably if you changed more perhaps may have even better rate.
A lot of other money changers were so much lower than this place. Checked on cashchanger.co and was disappointed so it was a pleasant surprise when I saw that this money changer offered 3.19.
This money changer is in Bugis Junction. Its almost hidden so you cannot find it easily but find spectacle hut and you will find it beside the escalator.
Also a quick note uncle does not take paynow like those money changers at raffles place area. He only does cash and there are plenty of atm machines at the basement. There's also one OCBC atm on the 2nd floor.

I was hunting for a good rate and came across them at Bugis Junction. Their rates are better than many others. I had a chat with the uncle and found out that he has been in business since 1995 with over 30 years of experience. Good service. Will visit again.
