Tourist Visa extension update/Medellin

Yesterday I went to pay the $60.400 COP to Bancafe in order to extend my tourist visa another 30 days. The lady behind the counter just shook her head. DAS has moved their account to Sudameris and according to their website they have three convenient locations. Crr 43A # 1 sur - 88 (El Poblado), Crr 43A #14 - 27, and Crr 46 #52 - 46 (Centro) I called DAS and asked for the account number and she said that I needed to come down to the office personally and I called Ballocks on that: Account number 630 17784. I then wanted to make sure it was the same amount into the acount. She gave me the same story about coming down to the office, I call balls, and she says that it is the same amount. Wish me luck I'm off to consignar plata para la solicitud de prorroga. Anybody with extra/further info. please share, I will let you know how this goes. Sea Bass
