Hello everyone, I have a question for DTV holders. How do you guys pay in Thailand ? As you get your salary from an outside country. WISE/REVOLUT to your thai bank (if you have the chance to have one) ? Get cash from ATM ? Please help

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 !

Another shocker! At Nong Khai on the Laos side they asked me to pay in USD for my VOA just now. $40 USD for Canadian. Ofc, I didn't have it because they always ask for THB and complain that USD is not in pristine condition when you mention USD.

So ofc I overpayed 1.7k baht because its their usual scammy rate. I could have saved 350THB. Well, now they don't care about THB, they ask for USD first.

I've been crossing that border for 12 years, and it's the first time they speficially ask for USD. They even have a new pink exchanger booth on the Thai side by the photocopy booth, which I should have deduced is there for a reason.

So if you need to bounce, come here with THB and exchange on Thai side and they will take your USD and I'll save 300-400THB in bogus conversion.

Hi, I am just opening my Thai bank account and wondered if anyone had advice on cheapest way of transferring large sums into the account. I can use Swift from my uk bank and have Wise and Revolut but open to any suggestions to minimise charges. Many thanks for any reply
