I had a similar experience with a thai tutor but in reverse, I was describing an older man, when she says this is Thailand you can't say that, we accept everyone, we have lady boys you know... I must have really said it with an English pronunciation.

I'm sorry you don't understand. The exchange rate is like...if I have 1USD if someone gives me an exchange rate of 30 then I have 30bhat.

Now deemoney if I transfer 150,000bhat I get 4,444.44 + their125fee so they are giving you an exchange rate of .0296..where as the current mid market rate is .03 which would be $5,000 so, Dee money charges you 125,bhat and makes and additional $566.66 by giving you a lesser exhange rate.

@Andrew *******

what was the exchange rate? As in I give you 1000bhat...how much USD do I get?

@Andrew *******

ahh but you also have to look at the exchange rate a given company gives.

and what if you don't have a house in your home country? What if you have been working in another country for years and were in Thailand when this happened?

@Andrew **********

use an agent, seriously it makes everything easier.

@Jake ******

I just assume it wouldn't work? Kbank is thai citi bank isn't, even if it is citibank in Thailand. Bangkok bank, Kbank, are all east to link to grab and get autopay, as for lazda I always just end up doing bank transfer, there are instructions after you buy something.

@Alvin *****

what do you mean people don't search on google? Or any search browser. That comment makes me sad.

How does that work here? In china to transfer a work permit the company must cancel your visa and then the new company has 30 days to apply and put you back in the system.

and guess what happens if the very old get sick. The thing is of you give an 85 year old person some thing and two weeks later they die it's hard to know what it is. That same person most likely would have died anyways in two weeks. Other wise it becomes a guessing game oh I gave them an asperine three weeks ago. They pinned there head 4 weeks ago. ...also vaccines arnt for sick people. They are for healthy people, it's one of the only medicines we give to the healthy which is why we take them so seriously.
