Are these available in Thailand?

I don't know as i took them at the time living in Europe  , but could use them in Thailand before i had KK account , just ask online they have all your questions in Q&A , whole procedure was online .... but with  verification , and they are under U.K. financials control .... 

 

Now i have them only as reserve money transfer 

 

I do not claim they are the cheapest , as result counts first for me ....., i never cry when backing eggs i must break the shells.... ???? as some do ....(matter of speaking )

2.5% fee, wow.

 

I think I looked at them before but ran into a problem. 

 

With my crypto.com card, all transactions are free.

They have crypto coins too now , i don't risk any crypto .

 

yes i think they are not the cheapest , hence my " egg backing" remark but i could even load Skrill account with my

KK Webcard "visa ???? " and wit draw to my Home country bank ,( Skrill is still on my E.U. adress....)

Now is a great time to buy crypto, the start of a bull run like 2017!

That's great. Paypal now allows crypto trading too so all other payment providers will have to follow.

Costa Rica

I tried Costa Rica for 3 months. It was boring. It would be good for people that want to sit around at a resort by the beach all day ????

Yep, a pre-paid credit card is what I meant. I will probably end up just keeping my Bangkok Bank savings account open. Sounds right what you said "plus point was obviously that the only risk you are exposed to is the amount on the card". It worries me having most of my money in a online savings account. I plan to carry the allowable amount of cash on the plane and open a bank account asap in Mexico.

I'm sure you dont need to be told how to "suck eggs" but don't put them all in one basket ???? , when i took a lot of money out to Thailand towards a house deposit I split it up and even went to the precaution of stitching up quite a few pockets to reduce the chance of being pickpocketed or the money falling out, its a bit of bind (pun) but worth it if you want it all intact at the other end.
