THAIJAMES Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Open a foreign currency account in pounds at a Thai bank. For example SCB. You don't have to put any money in it upon opening, you have about one month to transfer money from your UK account directly to the Thai account in pounds. This should only be for money that you will be using in Thailand and want to convert little at a time based on favorable exchange rates. Note that these kind of accounts have no fees as long as you take out pounds into local Thai currency at the time of your choosing. Sending money back to the UK in pounds will be somewhat costly. Read the fine print carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
