I would guess some of us are not made of money Mr. Tucker. You have 25K Thai baht you can "loan" me?

Why do you people offer up tangent answers and opinions not specific to the question is my thought.

Right.....I am trying to consider all the factors in making the transfer. I see the different exchange rates can produce a rather large difference on 800k. Thanks!

Yes Sir, I am from the USA. Could I ask how a person opens an account with the NYC branch, and if my Pattaya branch account would simply be tied to the NYC branch? Thank you!

Well, being I would be wiring dollars to the Bangkok Bank, I assume that it is under their control. Looks like I need to go by a branch and see what would happen so as to be fully informed in my decision making. Thanks for your input!

Yes, I have had excellent service from them for smaller amounts. Seems to me the fee for the 800k is a bit stiffish though. Thanks for your input!

WOW! What excellent and useful information there Mr Noel! Yes, I am a Veteran, but was totally unaware of that. I will see if I can get an account there and push it through from that banking establishment. I will let you know how things work out for me in this regard. Appreciate it a lot!
