Came to Malaysia for the first time, we didn't find this exchanger right away — at first we sent money to scammers)) Then we stumbled upon this exchanger. This time, after checking everything 300 times, we still decided to use them. The guys helped us a lot and really saved us in a situation where, through our own stupidity, we were left without cash. They explained everything, showed the pickup points. At every stage we were accompanied by manager Stanislav, for which we are very grateful.
