TRANSFER OF THB FROM BANGKOK BANK to CHF of my Swiss Cantonal Bank ?

Hello Swiss expatriates!

I am thinking of transferring part of my THB from my Bangkok Bank account to my cantonal bank (Neuchâtel) in Switzerland in CHF. Are the exchange rate and fees on both sides correct? THANKS !

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses options for transferring Thai Baht (THB) from a Bangkok Bank account to a Swiss Cantonal Bank account in CHF, with inquiries about exchange rates and fees. Comments suggest using the Bangkok Bank app for a one-time transfer, as it may incur higher costs compared to other apps like Wise, which is recommended for being easy, cheap, and fast.

Bank transfer to home account, all others either unreliable or finished

If it's a one time thing I just would use the Bangkok bank app. Yes, maybe it cost a bit more, but otherwise you have to use an app like Deemoney or so (Registration, setup, etc. etc.)

Oh, I really don't know. Only know with deemoney you also can send THB to other countries.

Deemoney isn't cheaper than Bangkok Bank.

With Thai Credit/mastercard it's possible because a mastercard works world wide. When you have y'r home bank registered in Wise, just click on it and click send.

Then you get this picture. On the question "how you want to pay" just use y'r Thai credit/master card. (This will be deducted in THB from y'r Thai bank where you have y'r card from).
