What are some affordable agencies in Bangkok for a third border run?
Hello, I wanna do a 3rd border run this year. I’m Canadian. Someone know a good agency not too expensive who accept to do this ? I’m from Bangkok.
Summary so far
A Canadian expat in Bangkok is seeking recommendations for affordable agencies that can assist with a third border run. The conversation, however, takes a diversion with various comments about transferring money out of Thailand, indicating some confusion and frustration among users regarding different aspects of banking and money transfers.

Graeme Drake It's been possible for at least a decade through the banking apps, and long before that by a visit to the bank or western Union.

I'm sure the op will be relieved to know that.
He's trying to move money OUT of Thailand to a UK bank.
Maybe you could add some recent experience of a similar transfer????

I went into my local bank and asked to transfer some money
“ Do you have a current account?”asked the Teller
“ No, I have a paper one like everyone else!” I replied 😉

I did this once. Money was credited within 24 hours.
On a similar theme, I frequently send gbp from hsbc to fcd in kt bank. It takes 30 minutes.
Twice I've sent gbp from fcd bb to fcd kt. It takes over a week!! And in both situations we use the same intermediary bank.
Anyone explain?

I do it all the time. Takes a matter of minutes most times as long as a week day. 250 baht fixed fee. I know they make money from the exchange rate too.

If its a normal bank to bank swift transfer, often the same day if both banks are open no weekend or holidays etc, otherwise 1-2 days.
You can look at the status of the transfer on your K bank banking app.

7 days is more than enough I would think.
Have you checked your K(asikorn ?) bank account ? Does the money show as withdrawn ?
If so, time to go to K bank and find out why.
