Can someone explain to me how I change my 800k THB back to GBP and send it out of Thailand? Kasikorn Bank doesn’t have a foreign currency section ( we had some GBP in cash but had to change it to THB before putting it into our bank accounts). We are leaving next month, how do I get my money back? I know I can use Wise to transfer money into my Kasikorn bank but they do not accept the transfer the other way. SWIFT is finished I know that too. I do not want to take 36k back to the UK in cash.
Th is to everyone who’s tried to help.
ADDENDUM - In the end the K+ staff told me I had to go to my Kasikorn Branch (only there) and that the branch would arrange the transfer. Of course when I got to the bank they said “no, you must use K+ and rang them for me to speak again. The K+ man tried to walk me through their app but I was right, the App would not allow me ( a foreigner) to send this money. Then he said the only way I could get my money sent to gbp UK account was if I could prove how I brought it in. Fortunately I had brought a printout directly from my bank for visa purposes. NOTE: they will not accept any online printout from Wise or the UK account, it had to be manually printed by the bank. He tried to say I needed a more recent printout but when I accused him ( loudly) of trying to steal my money and asked him if he expected me to fly to the UK, get a printout from my bank and fly back to Thailand he gave in and very quickly we filled out a form and literally by the end of that same day, the money was in my UK account. So, make sure you have this information with you and know that you cannot deal with any branch, just the one where you opened the account.
