However, what keeps this from being 5 stars is a rather cold and unfriendly welcome. The woman behind the counter did the exchange but showed no friendliness. Also, although I checked the rate on their website before I went in, I got less than the rate quoted. I know exchange rates fluctuate but this was a very rapid drop. Also, the owner was there and walked right past us as we were leaving, but instead of acknowledging us in any way, he averted his eyes and looked at the floor. Is it just too much effort to look at your customers and say "Thanks for coming in," or similar or even just a friendly smile? We felt completely unwelcome and will go elsewhere for future currency exchanges. How you treat your customers DOES matter.

I'm sharing this based on my personal experience. A transfer from Iran was sent on September 26, and I didn't receive it in Vancouver until October 10 -- far slower than what Vanex promised. During that delay, there was no proper customer service, no clear explanations, and not even a simple apology for the inconvenience. I had to constantly follow up just to get basic updates. It felt like once they received the money, the urgency and care completely disappeared. When you're dealing with essential funds, reliability and transparency should be the top priority -- sadly, that wasn't the case here. This review reflects what actually happened to me. And if Vanex claims my information is false, I have all the chat screenshots ready and will update this review again.

Warning to others: Vanex has shown repeated broken promises, refusal to refund, and threatening behavior. Protect yourself and avoid this company for any financial transactions. I strongly warn everyone against using Vanex. I trusted them with my money transfer, but despite repeated promises that the funds would be delivered to Iran, nothing was received. Each time I followed up, they gave excuses and refused to provide a proper answer. When I asked for a refund, they denied it. Even worse, the manager threatened me during this process -- and recorded. When the police became involved, Police advised me that others have had similar complaints and Police recommended to avoid further dealings with them.

If the line appears wickedly long at first, not to worry - it moves fast. The agents provide expedient service, and they're always cheerful, happy to answer questions, and generally wish you a good trip in (destination of choice). As others have mentioned, ask for the preferred rate for best results.

Can't say I've done a comparison since, but judging by the long line ups, I would assume they are still the best for your foreign currency needs. They carry EVERYTHING. Just call beforehand and check that they have enough in stock if you're needing some of the less popular currency. They are also super helpful and can either order you more or direct you to one of the other branches that will have what you need. This is also one of the better locations because it's easy to find parking. My only issue was that I wish their hours were a bit longer.

This is a long overdue review. I was looking for an investment property in Fall 2019. Having…read morealready bought / sold homes a few times over the last 2+ decades and thus have wide experience (good and bad) with different realtors, I tried to make this purchase on my own -- without a realtor. Long story short, in the end, I did work with a realtor. I chose Pete Shpak and I am still grateful 1 year later for all his assistance and advice. He's the best. Pete is a great guy - incredibly hard working and professional. You'll get that from reading all his other reviews. What really stands out for me is that Pete is value-added. He gave me information I didn't have access to - and I'm pretty good at research and digging for information on my own. Pete is a great listener. He heard me out and understood exactly what I wanted. He didn't waste my time. He knows what he is doing. He has opinions and will let you know what he thinks - but he doesn't force his views on you. He's also a brilliant negotiator. You can't go wrong. Two more reasons why Pete exceeds expectations and stands out from other realtors: (1) Pete understands the market; and (2) Pete knows his data. Pete was the first realtor in Vancouver who offered "previously sold" prices on the internet before other realtors started doing it. While assessed values of properties are available to everyone, only realtors had previously sold prices. I was digging deep on google for data on my own and was able to access Pete's data even before I met him!! It was only a coincidence we ended up speaking on the phone. During my search, Pete steered me towards a newer / popular building with a great reputation. It was very nice - but I found the unit small and expensive for price per square footage. I had wanted a larger footprint for that price. Nevertheless, I ended up buying the newer / smaller unit in January 2020 and inherited the tenant that came with the unit. Fast forward to end of August 2020 - my tenant advised she had to leave. Given the global pandemic (and landlords in the West End and Downtown were offering first & last months rent for free over summer 2020) I was prepared to have the investment unit sit empty. Boy - was I wrong. I had a dozen queries in the first 8 hours of posting and almost 40 interested renters over 2 days. Received 2 applications within the first 48 hours. There was a HUGE demand and I had NO IDEA. I found a wonderful new tenant within days after checking her references. Pete told me the building had a great reputation and was a solid investment for me. He was totally right! I'm not worried about having to rent that place out again if my current tenant decides to leave. I could go on about what a great, hard-working guy Pete is - but I'm sure his clients have got that covered in all the other reviews. Life has been busy and we've all had our issues to deal with - but now that 2020 is finally over, it will be nice to move on from last year. Pete was one of the silver linings from 2020 - someone I met and who brought value and good advice and someone I would be delighted to work with again should I have the opportunity to do so in the future. Thanks so much Pete!
