Hy folks , just for a change a non visa question .

Been coming for about 20 years , used to bring travellers cheques , then just cash .

This time because I'm doing a 3 month trip , cash is a bit dubious . Talking 15k English , now I usually bring 8k no drama . But bit wary of carrying this much .

The bank would charge me 2.5% every transaction , not something I'm willing to pay .

Suggestions....

Hey folks looked into all the things mentioned , some cards said free use abroad but small print had a limit each month .

Starling Bank seems to not charge at all . So signed up with them .

Hi there.

About the 20 k proof of funds flying into Swampy.

Has anyone been asked and shown travellers cheques as proof.

Cheers.

Slightly off topic question (Tod please feel free to delete if needed) - does anyone know if it's possible to buy £ or $ travellers cheques in Thailand (CNX) ???? - I've asked at a couple of banks and got a blank look.

(Context - I ideally don't want to wander around with 20k cash on me when I'm off travelling round SE Asia before coming back into Thailand on a new SETV).

Thanks 😄
