Try different banks... claim you got the note from their adjacent ATM and they will replace it with intact one. Works everytime you just need to keep insisting persistently. Also in small village shops theyre more accepting with damaged notes. Read More

I don't get it. You leave the country for 2 years, leave her behind and don't know if the relationship will last? You won't be back to this country so that means you want your girl come with you later, right? After 2 years no contact I ... Read More
