When does the $20,000 bill start circulating?

They’ll start circulating at the end of October. Now, we just need them added to ATMs and self-service machines, as they still don’t even accept the 10,000 bills yet.

Frustrating because the ATM machines don't seem to work with even some 2k bills. Hopefully they get all of this sorted out.
 
Is anyone getting many of the 10k notes? I have gotten a few from Western Union but it is not that often. What is the point of having these bigger notes if they aren't widely circulated or work in the ATM machines.

There aren't too many of them. Hopefully they quickly roll out the 20k notes and more of the 10k notes.
 
The last few times I've got money from the Western Union on Cordoba and Montevideo it was all in 10k notes. I usually get there as soon as it opens to avoid waiting though, maybe they run out early. The one on Florida near Peru never has them, sometimes they don't even have enough 1k notes and I end up with mega stacks of 500 peso notes

That's good to know. The WU office on Armenia/Guatemala also has 10k notes if you go earlier when they open too.
 
Has anyone seen any yet? I read they are in circulation but my bank didn't have it yet. Also, none at the WU that I go to in Palermo Soho.
