Easier and faster than getting currency through my bank. Customer service was effecient and to the point. Will be coming back the next time I need currency for a trip abroad. read more

After checking with our bank we call LA currency to see if they had the currency we needed ahead of our trip to Japan. They had what we needed and at a better exchange rate than our bank and a way better exchange rate than you'll find at the airports. It was a pretty simple process. We got there about 30 minutes before closing, it wasn't too busy so we were in and out in about 10 minutes. read more

This is my go to place for converting USD to whatever currencies is needed when traveling abroad. The deals are always good and not only that, they also buy back whatever you have left over. I needed some pounds for the UK which they only had smaller bills, that was ok. Easier to use versus trying to get change with larger bills. Service is always great with the friendly staff. It's not a big place with a couple of windows to serve you. It's in a strip mall off of Van Nuys Blvd. As it part of a strip mall, parking can be limited if all the spots are utilized. There's also street parking if needed. Each and every visit, it's always been great service and friendly staff. Our go to place for currencies. read more

This was my first time exchanging currency and I must say, LAcurrency had me in and out within 5 minutes! They are super friendly and efficient while giving the best rates possible. I used to just order foreign currency through my bank but I'll no longer be doing that thanks to LAcurrency. I saved close to $50 exchanging through them! Highly recommend! read more

When traveling overseas, I never have considered the option of obtaining foreign currency stateside before travel. But it seems to be a popular practice with many. Is it better to do so, or exchange your dollars when you reach your international destination? As for me, I have observed that if you go to the right places at your destination, you can get a competitive rate. However, there is the argument that if the dollar is strong, it may be advantageous to change your dollars before leaving. This could be true, also if you go to the proper sources that give you the best rate. In my experience, depending on the global destination, sometimes currency exchanges can give you rates that are better than the banks. And also remember that some places do charge extra fees. My visit to LA currency was to do the reverse, exchange different foreign currencies into US dollars. I learned a few things. They do not accept coins, only bills and that too only the current notes that are in circulation. I was surprised that left over foreign currency from a recent trip of 8 months ago were not accepted. Therefore, my bills from Sri Lanka did not qualify for exchange. So were bills from the Dominican Republic and Mexico. These last two were long ago trips .....of notes found in the bottom of drawers :). My bills from the Philippines and Thailand, were able to be converted to dollars. This currency exchange has two very efficient tellers who provided excellent dialogue and service. read more

The teller was impatient and came across as rude during my visit. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're genuinely curious and looking to learn more about the currency market. You're better off going elsewhere for better customer service and a more welcoming experience. read more

This is my second time coming to this currency exchange shop, both times have been very pleasant. The ladies behind the counter have been helpful, quick service and polite. Parking is a little bit in a little mini mall next to a 7-Eleven so sometimes it's a little bit difficult, but I got lucky both times and found a spot . Make sure you have your valid drivers license or a passport with you when doing a transaction. I received three dollars off my transaction by checking in on Yelp. read more

Great! The staff here is so kind and knowledgeable. I love this is an easy stop in the SFV. They had ARS for our first trip to Argentina next week.

Went there and the lady was extremely racist . Refused to service me right after being asked how was I related to someone in Africa and said her system is " Frozen " after asking me a bunch of questions. Yeah I went to Jon's and no questions asked . read more

I have been here twice to get pesos before my trips to Mexico. Both times it was a quick, accurate, and painless experience. The only thing is that the location is kind of sketchy. There are other businesses in the little strip mall, so parking in the lot is a bit challenging. However, there is metered parking on the streets as well, but if I'm carrying a substantial amount of money, I want to park as close as I can. All and all, it was easy and quick! read more
