sounds more like a you-problem with the selection of the ATM that you use… its recommended to use atm at the banks in case it eats your card and for safety. they will surely be stacked.

i probably used the ATMs in this country 100 times in recent years and i think it was 1, max. 2 times that it didnt had 30x1000 bills….

so you cannot say that ATMs often dont have 30k available.

the only option you have is going with a bank that reimburses you the atm fee. for example Charles Schwab for our american friends :)

what are you talking about? every Krungsri and kbank atm will give you 30k… bangkok bank 25k. and some others… i am pulling money from the atm for years now. every month multiple times.

unless they are allmost empty. what maybe happens in 1% of the cases… maybe deep in Isaan 🤣

just use your home country’s bank. easy solution and usualy not much more expensive. less headache and money in a safe space

Anonymer Teilnehmer 953 220 baht vs. wise fee… it is such a small difference that it is not really worth having the local bank account
