thai baht rate update

[BlueDragon193]

Today at UOB Thai - 24.32 bahts.

If you prefer better rates in Bkk, look for the non Bank MC and beside SR, there are two other that I came across in JJ mall and at Prachara rak bhampen road next to soi 6 in Ratchada but they might ask for bigger amounts.

UOB Thai still gave the best rates than most banks around.

Overall, SG still gave the best option than overseas.

Chok Dee.

Bro, can you advise where exactly in boon lay? This is good rate and I don't mind getting there to change some.

Thanks for headup.

SG beats Bkk (as you also saw from other replies here).

GM last night doing 24.60 (after lowish last week). Arcade last fri did 24.50. Think Arcade's probably best in city, with many ah neh shops smack in financial centre.

Change at bkk airport, on return to SG? 2 things to note:
1) Got excess, didn't get to spend all? Usually, mone no enough (other way around, change more thb!

2) If you mean changing back from thb, we get screwed by sgd buying rate (at least -5% differential vs buying rate). Worse, airport rates are already worse off than elsewhere (known fact).

5 weeks ago is passé, in ever changing daily market volatility

Bro YY, GM does it mean the small counter one facing the main road or is it another you went? 24.6 is good enough for me.

Couple of ah neh stalls facing main road. Also big Bkk Forex at end (gas station). Doesn't hurt to ask around, marginal diff. Best is still Arcade

[leaseoflife]

UOB thai is going for 24.41 today. Not sure if have changed though.
