Colombia did not redenominate its currency in 2014. The Santos administration says that the plan to chop three zeros off the money continues to be in play.
Short version of what happened: Congress resisted the cost and President Santos decided not to use his considerable legislative power to push the bill through. In February 2015 the country introduced a 100,000-peso bill, temporarily reviving the debate. But for the moment, nothing is in store. Given that Santos has a lot on his plate, I doubt it will happen for several years ... I would be surprised if it happens before the 2018 election.
Hope that helped!
