The exchange rate is not as good.
Alvin Wee
They try to give us old euros. Sneaky fellows.
Leon Andrade
One of the staff members is very cruel; after just asking a few questions, they suddenly raised their voice.
Rumah Muzik
Useless! The counter staff doing forex went to buy food, meaning that no exchange service could be processed. Awful customer service.
Atticus
Okayish rate. 1.5%-1.8% commission compared to mid-market. There are better money changers with less than 1.5% commission around Bugis/Raffles.
Yannie Leong
Went there to exchange money at 3 PM and was told the staff in charge had gone for lunch, only returning at 4 PM. Why couldn't the rest of the staff assist with money exchange? Wasted my time coming all the way there.
Shin Nee
Dishonest money changer. Check your money before leaving the counter.
Dina
There were 4 staff members at the counters. However, only one counter was open for money exchange. It took quite a while to queue, which made me wonder about the efficiency. The exchange rate wasn't the best.

Services are quite limited; it seems the bulk of their business comes from remittance. They do not buy or sell currencies beyond those listed. The ladies at the counter seem to speak Thai, which probably helps their business. Better options can be found in the City Hall area if you are looking to exchange currency.

Here's an edited version: "When I inquired about money changing, I was directed to the edge counter. The lady was busy talking to three other colleagues standing behind her. She attended to me with an unfriendly tone. I decided not to buy due to the lame attitudes."
Hermione Ng
Easy transaction. No messing around.
Tony Khoo
Their efficient staff and one of the best rates in town for remitting money to Thailand.
Andy Tan
The rate is good. I would really recommend changing your currency here.
Rex Kermit
Surprisingly very good rates for MYR, THB, RMB. And others, I think, are not very far off on decimals from the best of Arcade Exchange. They also allow you to use Paynow, which takes only 2 minutes for an email verification. Just be aware: remittance people cannot perform currency exchange, as there is only one person doing it. Don't be difficult and complain about this arrangement. It's normal, as they were originally more of a remittance agency.

Good rates for exchanging USD. Professional setup. However, note that their rates for smaller denomination USD notes are poor. Therefore, prefer them for larger denomination notes.
