Is it easy to exchange £50 notes in Thailand?

No

Typically the exchanges like Clean £5/£10/£20 notes.

Clean means no heavily creased notes, no Writing on the notes and no tears in them

...you have to wash and iron it carefully .

If it's a question,. where's the question mark?

Sure for 50Baht

They take chickens dogs cats etc

Go to any of the Super Rich branches either at the airport or other branches. You will get a better rate for £50 notes. I never had a problem. In addition, carrying small notes take up too much space when travelling. Most banks in the UK now dispense £50's from cash machines.

Not easily ,you have to do the macarana whilst humming the national anthem then they might give you the proper rate

Yes, I always take £50 notes to Thailand

Was at super rich at the airport yesterday you actually get .10 thb better rate for 50 over the lower denominations.

only the new notes. I have the older ones and they are rejected in Thailand and Philippines. I reached out to a friend in the UK and he said they are now obsolete. A pity I hung on to a few of them too long

they did

Nine bob notes are fine, as long as they're not bent.

They prefer them as long as they are in mint condition

Love them. Better rates too

Some exchanges actually prefer them and yes you will get a better rate!

They have to be in pristine condition i have done a couple of times

yes

Yes always unmarked no tears I use them regularly

The girls love them , they will tack out 😁

No !!!!!

No problem at all. I get all new 50s from the bank just before I go and all get accepted

Best rate for £50

£50 notes are best imo because they are rarely used in Uk so are usually in better condition. Also you might get a slightly better rate

I found the prices are the same whichever notes you use as long as they are clean and crisp

Every year I take £50 notes never a problem but it’s correct they need to be in good condition.

It's weird that they only take perfect notes. Does anyone know why?

Yes do it all the time

Yes, and some places (eg Superrich) will give a slightly better rate for them.

Get new notes order from your bank any mark especially pen mark or writing they definitely won’t take them.

Yes I asked this question just yesterday..

If the are mint.

You get a very good (probably the best rate at the airport. But only in the basement. It’s a 8% difference with upstairs.

Look here for directions.

What the difference in rate between £50s and £20s.

Only way to get £50s is to go and wait at Bank for me. Might not be worth the hassle.

Yes but the notes need to be perfect, they prefer the £50 notes anyway and you’ll get a tiny bit more baht for them (its not a lot but anything is better than nothing)

Chicks at nana will love em

As long as they are in near perfect condition, no problem, however I did have a problem once in Patong, I was issued the £50 along with many others by the Midland bank in the Uk, the exchange teller said it was fake, within minutes two policemen arrived, I was asked if I had more £50 pound notes, I said yes in my hotel room safe. I was escorted on the back of a police motorcycle back to my hotel, where they inspected every single £50 note. They said they were all good and left. They even gave me back the “fake” and told me not to try to cash it anywhere else and return it to my Uk bank. I did, my bank said it wasn’t fake and credited my account £50 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Bigger is better

They love £50 notes make sure not torn or marked.

They even do £100 notes

Any bank

Just make sure there in good nick and you will have no problems

They will have to be perfect as new ones or they will not take them

They basically have to be in pristine condition.

I had no problem when I exchanged some last year.

@James *****

as long as they are clean

All GBP notes inc. £50 need to be pristine condition no rips and definitely no writing or marks on them 👍

Unmarked & not torn in any way. When you withdraw in the U.K. you should mention this to the bank and give them notice. Check them while still in the bank. Tell them you need pristine notes.

No problem with £50 notes but as with all notes they tend to be very fussy. No writing, no tears, no dirty marks. Need to be in very good condition

Yes no problem if perfect condition. I had 2 that weren't perfect and couldn't get anyone to exchange

Yes, but all notes whatever value or currency have to be near perfect, without tears, rips or any marks of any kind.

You can cachet more for £50’s just make sure they have no marks or tears as they won’t take them

They typically only deal with flawless recent notes. Otherwise, chances are they will decline an exchange.
