jadee Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Yes, it's easy. Just do a SWIFT transfer. In theory, you can do this at any Bangkok Bank branch, but it's best to go to a big branch where the staff are used to dealing with tourists/foreigners, like the branch at Siam Paragon or another mall in Bangkok. If you have Bangkok Bank internet banking, you can apply to set up an international transfer service - just fill out a form and supply the required documents. I set this up years ago and still use it regularly. It lets you initiate your own transfers from your Bangkok Bank account to the UK whenever you want.

SteveK Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I tried and failed to do this last year - they would not do it without an "invoice" but refused to elaborate any further. I ended up withdrawing as cash, changing at Vasu, and taking it on the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dollars only but I will look into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton Rd Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Deemoney seems a popular way, Bank staff can be utterly clueless and unhelpful. My sil works at Bangkok Bank, I can't even always get info out of her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
