Kasikorn Bank Fees

[peterpeter]

Banks I have held a Kasikorn bank account for a number of years and realize

there has always been a charge incurred when money arrives in my account

recently sent 121000 Baht to my account and the fee was 700 Baht

the fee I thought was always between 200 to 300 was I wrong?

is there a bank with less fees?

While we are here lads I am ready to put my 800000 Baht away for retirement

Which Bank do you recommend for fixed rate of intrest.

The K-bank international receiving fee is 0.25% (Bt200 min, Bt500 max) which is the typical Thai bank international receiving fee.   Maybe an intermediary/correspondent bank fee also occurred.

On top of that K-Bank charged me up to 750B to move the money from Bangkok main office to Pattaya branch. 

No such robbery at Bangkok Bank, where 500B max means 500B max.

Thank you for that Pib and sorry for for my late reply no excuse. There has never been an  intermediary/correspondent fee that I know of before only difference the  branch I always used before closed  and now having to use another branch further away.

I have only used passbook before here and think it is time to do my banking on line

hopefully I will be able to keep better check.

I can understand T being upset, up to 750 baht just to move money between branches
