From the Thai Master
As I have probably spent more time in Thailand than the rest of you I will tell you how you get the best rate.
Cash or Travellers Cheques give the best rates. The better being higher denomination cheques in UK Sterling.
To cash a cheque is a fixed price of 30 baht(45p) £100, £200 UK travellers cheques give you the lowest commission and you actually get the highest amount for these. Buying currency in Thailand will be about 5-8% more than the published rate in the uk paper(so presently you will get about 68, not 62 which is published). Heathrow and the banks will be offering you about 59-62 plus a commission.
Remember your bank will not charge you for a sterling travellers cheque. Take a few grand in them, if you have them nicked then your covered.
I spend about £25k in Thailand each year buying goods so an extra 5-10% goes a long way.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

Originally posted by NetwkSupportAfternoon All,
Im going to Thailand in October, was wondering if any of you had been before and if you could recommend a means of getting to my money when over there??
I've weighed it up:
Credit Card: Charges for cash withdrawals, Interst charges, miss a payment get card frozen, etc..
Bank Account (Switch/Visa Debit card): cash withdrawal charges, fluctuating excange rate..
Nationwide bank account: Aparently they dont charge you to withdraw money abroad, anyone tried them?
Travellers Pay-Card (from example Travelex): charge the caard up with an amount from your bank account, but then get charged £2.50 per withdrawal
Im confused. all i want is an easy way to get some cash out over there and not pay through the nose... please tell me what you did when you went???
Lived there for a year and just got the company to give me cash
when I was in need of a bit extra just used my debit card, but like you say you get charged for it.
... btw no jokes about sex changes please!"Well behaved women rarely make history"Comment
