when I used to do this they wouldn't allow a same day turnaround. This may have changed. But if I were you I would assume you need to stay at least until the next day.

No one ever said Thailand was a hotbed of intellectuality.

Thats kinda funny.

Like in a " Would you prefer a handjob, or to be kicked in the balls?" Sort of way.

as I mentioned above, if you get a Charles Schwab account they will refund the 220 baht fee ATM withdrawal that Thai banks charge, unlimited. What I am most curious about is what the markup on standard exchange rates are when making an ATM using a foreign bank card .

Anyone in this thread have knowledge of that?

yeah , I’m referring to the original poster saying he has a Schwab bank account, which i have as well. It’s an American card that refunds all ATM fees which is great.

What I am talking about is the exchange rate mark up charged by Thai banks. I’m not even sure what they are But this being Thailand, I’m sure they are substantial.

Wouldn’t you lose a hell of a lot in the exchange markup by withdrawing from an ATM?
