As of an hour ago.....Yellow TTs simply ouch......  Further words superfluous

 

 

So you are referring to Pounds.....you should have stated that in the first place....as not everyone on the forum is from Britain.

 

Is this meant to be a thread that is updated every few minutes with the latest TT exchange rates?

Not everyone here exchanges Pounds. 

But Euro or Rubles?

Both quite miserable.

Neither have fallen off a cliff of late. Certainly nothing notable.

 

 

So about what is the discussion? A strong baht? 

No one knows....

 

Nothing new

I don't understand the relation between the title and the content of the first post ???

 

BTW no idea where is the most widely used Currency Exchanger, so many of them in Pattaya !

Wasn't "ouch" enough?

 

Might also be worth to read the thread saying that even at 38 to the Pound most UK retirees won't and can not leave?

I follow the US exchange rate; it has gone down 2% this past week. Last week it cost about 908 dollars to take out 30220 baht at the ATM.  Now it would cost about 20 extra dollars to take out the 30220 baht.  All math done in near enough mode.

Looks like the highest number on the board. What can I say but congratulations.

So following the general tone of this thread....not everyone uses US dollars so who cares

You use the wrong currency ? I'm still happy with (nearly) 5% in the last 3 months .. or plus 20% over the last 20 years ..

The £ has and is still falling against nearly all other currencies The % loss over the last 2 years is pretty much the same against the Thai baht or the euro, about 20% and it's due to brexit uncertainty. I have UK based pensions and have to change in to either baht or euros. It's becoming painful on a daily living basis.

The banks are giving 40.8 to the pound. Up from 40.5 yesterday.

You say that further words are superfluous but I am having trouble following your point.

 

1. Are you complaining at the value of the £?

2. Are you complaining about the rates offered by TT Exchange?

3. Are you complaining about both?

4. Are you saying that TT Exchange are very good?

 

I am not clear. Could you make your point a bit more clearly. Thanks.

Further words would be very helpful actually. However if you're referring to the GBP rate, this is indeed the lowest it's fallen since the mid 90s. 

Indeed, a rate of 41.87 nows looks marvelous. On friday GBP hit a new low on Xe.com of 41.83, you would be lucky to get 41 baht from a bank at that rate.

I brought a bunch of green back last trip. The Panasonic Lumix GX9 goes for 33K with lens. Yes too expensive but TiT .... and 1k USD would have been 33K last week. I'm still kicking myself. Things like this end up pissing me OFF, more than they should, 

It was flirting with 30 to the dollar. Look at me now. I think dollar will lose value in latter part of year. But versus what?

Same with the Norwegian KR.  Terrible exchange rates these days .

 

We're an oil producing country but the dollar does not care.
