Arrive early. Leave a buffer before closing: one customer arriving at 10:50 pm was refused despite an 11:00 pm stated closing time.
Check rates. Ask for the current rate for your destination before sending; reviews mention different rates for Bangladesh, Nepal, India and Sri Lanka.
Confirm credit. If timing matters, confirm when the recipient will receive the money, since several reviews specifically mention instant or immediate credit.
Allow patience. Avoid relying on the advertised closing time alone, as another reviewer reported being told the branch was closed while time remained.

The Bottom Line
Redha Al Ansari Exchange in Al Quoz is mainly used for overseas money transfers and foreign-currency exchange. Customer feedback covers transfers to India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and the Philippines, so the destination corridor is central to the experience. The strongest recurring themes are competitive exchange rates, quick service and money reaching family or an account immediately.
The transfer experience gets particularly specific in the reviews: customers sending to India say their families received funds immediately, while others report instant credit to an account, even on a Sunday. Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka also receive repeated mentions for favourable rates. Staff are usually described as polite, helpful and professional, although the feedback is not completely consistent.
Timing is the main caution. One customer arrived at 10:50 pm and was told the branch had already closed despite an 11:00 pm stated closing time; another reported the same issue and called the staff rude. For a late transfer, arrive with a cushion and confirm the branch is still processing transactions.
It is also worth asking for the current rate and expected credit time for your specific destination before completing the transfer.
