Dispirit

Hello Expats:
My name is Diane and I plan on moving to Cuenca in July, 2012.
If anyone knows whether Ecuadorian Banks will accept Travelers Checks, please let me know.  This forum has been very helpful, thanks to all who contribute.

Regular US checks for sure, takes them a couple of weeks to cash them though.

Vazcorp on Gran Columbia and Luis Cordero in Cuenca will cash travelers checks. I am not aware of any other option.

Your best option is not to bring traveler's checks at all.  Cash and credit/debit cards are the easiest way to go.
