So next time change at Spore bank $1K note before u come? Its the same with USD. There are different rates for U$50 and U$100 notes. This applies in Spore also but I never asked and understood why.

But I think Super Rich rates are already quite good.

Re: thai baht rate update

23.45 x $1,000 = BHT23,450
23.50 x $1,000 = BHT23,500

Difference is BHT50

with BHT50 you can either...
1) buy a big bowl of noodles with the works & a coke
2) pay for the taxi airport surcharge
3) buy 1 or 2 BTS tickets
4) tip your hotel bell boy
5) buy a few cokes to stock your hotel mini bar with
6) .......

Re: thai baht rate update

I was at the money changer at bugis junction (under escalator 1st floor) and the rate was 23.45 but guy inside told me he ran out (time was 7pm)

Then i went down to Golden Mile.. went to that forex changer end of the building and was quoted 23.38

Then i went to see one of the indian money changers facing outside and the best rate i could find was 23.44 so in the end i changed there

Hi,

Just share my experience with the money changers in the vicinity of Bugis & North Bridge Rd. They displayed an attractive rate but when I told them that I needed Thai Baht, they replied that they have no stock. Forget about changing @ the above places, proceed to GM, Acrade or Chinatown will be a wise option. Cheers.

BEST ADVICE! from Bro Luv Cunt!

Seriously a waste of time running around our little red dot finding the best rates. Time+bus fare/petrol/parking etc... not worth it unless changing a few $10,000's. But whats said about the Bugis Junction/Nth Bridge Rd $$$ changers is true... kanna x2 in the past and told myself not 2 let them waste my time anymore. GM or Arcade is best for local changers... if not take Bro Luv Cunt's and my advice. Cheers all!

Today's rate..23.50/ 23.60. Name of money changer : Super Rich Thailand. Very famous n best rate in bkk. ..better to change sg to baht in bkk. Better rate anytime.
This SR has been referred on more than a few occassions for best rate bkk. Maybe more favourable than rest.. but be aware of the "catch" for BIG bucks (or 1k notes):

General rule of thumb is departure places like Singapore (with no currency controls) forex is generally competitive or even marginally better than destination. My own onservations is that local sg rates (like GM or Arcade, not changi or other lousy spots) are slightly better than bkk most places. And I'm not benchmarking SR. But then, unless one overspends in LOS (not unusual). If under spent, well there's always the next trip or palm off to fellow kakis (not to your puying for safekeeping!)
And yes, unless you are a BIG spender or into big bucks -weigh your cost of running around, time and effort.

Seems rate holding out to 23.40 (some1 here posted for GM yesterday)?

Re: thai baht rate update

Bros, please be aware that the thai banks nowadays impose charge of 150 baht per ATM transaction. I use my HSBC ATM card (sg) to withdraw cash using the ATM machines in Thailand. Charge for each transaction is 150 Thai baht and HSBC also charge SING$8. So total, I was charged 150 TB (ie 6 Sing dollars) plus $8 = $14 per ATM transaction.

That's daylight robbery.

Does anyone know where would be a good money changer to do this at Ratchada? The one at Robinson's isn't very competitive.
