First time needing a currency exchange outside of the airport. Thanks to a google search, I found three in the LA area. I called all three and they all seem fair but something about Continental stood out as honest and transparent. Great rate exchange and they actually matched the rate of a cheaper location. Parking structure had plenty of parking and the location is not easily spotted but also not hard to find. Signage all over read more

Fast, courteous service offering an excellent exchange rate. The location was surprisingly convenient, making it my new go-to place for foreign currency. read more

Quick and easy currency exchange. Recommend calling before coming to ensure they carry the currency you want to exchange for, they may have to pick up the currency from another location and it may take a day or two. The exchange rate I received was slightly lower than the one founs on Google search. They honor the rate of the day so this may slightly change from your quote on the call if you don't pick up on the day you call. Street parking only. read more

Went to Continental Currency to purchase Euros. Quick transaction at a fair rate. Would return

There's no parking and only one person always working there. It takes almost 45m every time I come here just to do a 5m transaction. Get another person to work here! read more

The man who works there is so incredibly rude. He picks and chooses who he wants to be nice to. On top of that he makes mistakes and tries to blame the customer. They seriously need to hire another person with better people skills. read more

Very helpful currency change service! I have done USD to foreign currency exchange at Culver City + Baldwin Hills branches. Both were helpful and had competitive exchange rate. Jose @ Baldwin Hills let me know that they had what I needed at Culver City. Gio @ Culver City very friendly. I would much prefer giving my USD to a small business than to Bank of America etc. for this service. Thanks! read more

Used it to pick up Western Union money transfer. received excellent service from Giovann. will definitely return!

Great place to go to exchange money before traveling. I went last minute before I had to go to Mexico and they had a great exchange rate. I called in advance to check the exchange rate. It was significantly better than any other place. I called. read more

Being in a position to need to seek a very high-interest payday loan is no fun. The guy at Continental Currency didn't appear to care that his attitude only made matters worse. He was remarkably rude and unpleasant to both of us as customers. We took our business elsewhere. I will never return to this place. read more

Super easy currency exchange process!! The gentleman behind the counter was kind and confirmed the amount several times with me. In and out the door in under 5 minutes. Great place! read more

Awesome. Same day services with small bills. I'll be back. Easy parking, professional and friendly.

Bad experience at this location. Rude and unprofessional cashier, I will not use this business again. Also, he was rude to other customers. Horrible! He ruined my day. read more

This is our go-to place for purchasing currency before going abroad. They are professional and have better rates than the airport. And we've learned the hard way that waiting to get abroad and finding an ATM doesn't always work out. read more

I got an exchange and only charge a small fee rather than ordering it in the bank. Hassle free.

Very helpful and knowledgeable. Quick and efficient money exchange. Parking was difficult to find .

Quick currency exchange. No line when I went midday on a Friday - In and out in less than 5 minutes.

The currency exchange here is ok. They exchange with no fees at the as long as you bring Cash. I planned poorly and couldn't get MXN from my bank. They gave me an exchange rate at 19.06 when the current rate is 20.37. They have to make money, I get it, but it was essentially a $130 charge on my exchange of $2k read more

This place is convenient! Easy to exchange currency on the spot. The bank needs a couple of days, so if you planned ahead, great! If not, this is your place! Great customer service as well! I will be telling all my friends and family about them. read more

Nice staff friendly and very helpful. They don't rip you off like most places definitely coming back . I recommend this place to anyone the young ladies are helpful read more

Western Union Services AT THIS LOCATION IS FANTASTIC!!! I was a receiver of cash. I did not realize that the various Western Union contracted stations have policy rules which can differ from each Western Union contracted station - which I understand. For two weeks I had cash waiting for me at Western Union after being sent to me. Well - what a pain it was to get the cash -- and here is why!! At one mailbox location for Western Union, they had to amount of cash in order to get the cash to you. After trying 2 weeks the mailbox store could not give me the cash because they did not receive the cash from other Western Union transactions. I then contacted the corporate offices of Western Union who informed that I could pick up from market which was just down the street. After contacting market down the street, they had the cash of their maximum of $500 as long as you go there when it during the day (not after 5 pm) and the cashier's have the money in their drawer. The markets policy is also based on whether they receive the cash from other purchasers but the remaining balance they will give you a check. So what I learned if I pick up cash from Western Union at a market - then have the sender send it in $500 increments. But what saved the day for me - what I learned is, I can and do send money via Western Union the cash at Continental Currency. They always have the cash and some locations are always open 24 hours a day!!! So the best places to get the cash from Western Union is a bank - or in my case a Currency Exchange place called Continental Currency. I will always do my business from now on at Continental Currency which will have cash (call to make sure what the limit is) But I am very happy now since I got back the money paid for tickets for a friend - what a hassle!! But I've learned a great deal from this experience- I am so happy that Continential Currency save the day read more

I had to exchange some money here last minute. It was the day before my trip to Europe and I needed to find some currency ASAP (because I'm a great planner). Most banks require a week's notice so they can order it. This place had some already and the exchange rates were even better than the banks! I called ahead and when I walked it, my money was ready to go immediately. read more

Very professional lowest exchange rate in Los Angels. We drive from Santa Clarita for it !

My experience with CCS was wonderful. I've used other services previously and this location was closer and easier for me to access. I requested quotes from five different services and the cost at CCS was lowest, plus they have locations close to my home. Jose, a manager who responded to my request, arranged for my currency to be ready in advance of me going to pick it up. He locked-in the rate quoted, even though the pick up was two days later. I ride my bike for many short trips and was able to take it inside with me when I did the pick up. The staff was friendly and the service was efficient. I recommend CCS and also Yelp's feature which allowed me to request quotes from multiple places. read more

Ladies who work in the front are very rude. Roll their eyes while they are talking to you. Yelling back and forth to each other about you, in front of you. They don't acknowledge the 3% exchange coupon BTW but only because the lady at the front has never done it and said SHE personally doesn't deal with it. Overall probably the worst service I've had in awhile. Plus they try to add a fee on top of their fee. I would never go back! Please be aware! read more

Easy process, friendly people & quick results. Will definitely bring them more of my business. Like car registration etc. That's a plus for me to avoid the DMV. Thx CCS for taking the pain out of a payday loan. read more

Warning! Place doesn't have the CCS photo in the profile photo. Has a bunch of Western Union ads. Quick response. Service modest. Got the job done within an hour. read more

I've been using them for years but lately the young ladies are very rude and abrupt . maybe it would be better if I spoke Spanish . how does a business deposit a check and keep it a secret that it didn't clear even though I have proof it did read more

One person working on a Saturday? Make sure to have your form fill out prior to going up to the window. Makes the process better for both you and the teller. read more

Donna helped me and was very accommodating. Great customer service and very fast! Will for sure use their services again!

Great service my one stop shop! I pay my bills, get a payday advance,send my mom money,cash my check, buy/sell foreign currency, get my DMV tags renewed, get lottery/ scratchers and so much more!!!! I LOVE this place!!! Not ghetto like other check cashers. They were very helpful and professional. read more

This place works with you on buying euros they have such great rates. I will be coming in the future.

This place is useless. Went to exchange for Euros and told me that they only have $50 worth. That doesn't even cover a cab ride from the airport to our hotel! Argh. read more

Thank you so much 'Sally' for taking the time and care to assist me with your service. A beautiful soul.

Took my friend to use Western Union here today and they took her money and sent it through Softgate Systems (a third party). So, since WU has no way to track that the money is just sitting out there until Softgate decides to batch and send the funds. Even when she gave her the WU form the teller responded and said we don't use those. She's making a complaint to the better business bureau. When she confronted the person by phone and told them it was consumer fraud to use a third party to make money off of her (especially when she gave her a WU form), the teller #60837, did not show any remorse what so ever and was instead rude, without even wanting to apologize. Of course - no manager was there. How there's no manager there is unbeknownst to us. And, she has to write a letter to get her funds back. If I could give less than 1 star I would. read more

If I could, I would give them 0 star. I called over the phone to find out the Euro rate for exchange and they told me that I needed to go there and show them the money to give me a rate. In shocked I asked then, how am I going to know if you are giving me a good rate? - Ironically she answered; you have to come and see. Is this the way to treat potential clients? Or this is a well prepare technique to take advantage of ignorant people? read more

0 Stars. You WILL NOT have a good experience. Times have changed, the lady behind the counter acts rude and unprofessional, also talks to her coworker about their lives while making your transaction as difficult as possible. You have to repeat yourself because she just decided to not hear you, and instead of giving you information that's helpful, she trys to make you feel like you should have known it already and gives nasty tone of voice and faces. No smiles, no friendly conversation, when you come up to the window its all about how to make you feel like you should have just gone somewhere else. read more

I recently went in to get a payday loan and there were three people behind the counter to women and one guy and the guy on the right of me was on his cell phone talking to whomever the two women on my left eye having a conversation with the guy on the right and the one woman in the middle who is helping me feel to do her job correctly she has missing documentation which I thought I was supposed to keep when in fact she wanted me to sign something and I said to her point-blank why don't you tell me so another words do your job that you getting paid to do otherwise don't do it and it got to the point where I had to contact the customer service number and report the three of them because that's Because that's how incompetent people can be when one is doing their job or trying to not do their job should I say and getting paid on top of it I would in no way recommend this cat check cashing place at all I think the people who work there are rude condescending belligerent and pure oxymorons read more
