Convert into Baht?  Are you sending USD?

yes, 2100 USD sent early AM CDT here in the USA, they received my USD this morning 24 hours later.  IT says its being processed with THB paid out on May 24 and recipient will receive their thai baht on 25th

Not a big deal still fairly new to Transferwise when USAA stopped allowing me to ACH directly through Bangkok Bank NY branch

Can depend on the amount sending.  If sending "over" $1950 that can add another day or two assuming you are using Bank Debit (ACH).     Also, you starting the transfer close to the weekend. 

 

Like initiating a transfer right now/Friday for $1950, then the money would not arrive until Monday/25 May.  Initiate a transfer for "over" $1950 and Transferwise then projects delivery as 27 May/Wed.  All tied to ACH clearing time and amount sent with weekends/holidays being dead time.  

Thank you for the clarification as I usually send around 35,000 baht and this time it was 66,000 baht, I did not realize the larger transactions were subject to a longer transit.  

anybody else seeing big slowdown on their USA to Thailand transfers.  Last month (and usually) I make the transfer early AM  in Central Time Zone (early evening same day in Bangkok)  and usually money is in Bangkok Bank by noon Bangkok time the next day

just sent another transfer today and they are saying it will take almost 1 full day for them to receive my money another day to convert it to Baht and another to get it into Bangkok Bank??
