But the 1000 Baht being bigger I'll head I new wallet which could leave many shops unable to sell the standard one of the moment. Can't help you there, it's above my pay grade. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace 20 Baht notes with coins, and get rid of satang coins and 1 baht coins no no no the old ladies gamble with the 1 baht coins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradmeister Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Good Point, and we know how much we love to be entertained. Then again, I read in business insider how Disney just posted its first loss of 2.75 billion in 3rd quarter 20. First loss since 9/11 attacks. Not to mention the 40000 employees about to be laid off... Movie theaters? Does anyone go to those anymore? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Krungsri, my own bank, today and noticed that their limit is 30,000 THB. I've read that Bangkok Bank also has a higher limit, but these are, apparently exceptions. https://www.thethailandlife.com/atm-thailand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers full plandemic package, welcome to the new BS. i boycotted cinemas several years ago when they started to push their stupid agendas into art. the same goes for music. the good stuff was buried many decades ago, for me it can all go away, i would not even notice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertalaska Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Old people should design everything important like this due to crappy eyesight. Or they should at least be in involved in the process. Edited December 16, 2020 by albertalaska more thoughts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orchidfan Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I just received my first "new" B100 note today from 7/11. The color to my aging eyes looks IDENTICAL to the B1000 note. Even the owner and other customers agreed! Crazy! Did they run out of pink/red ink?? And still no note denomination printed at the top. Going to be some mistakes made with this one !

Leaver Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Move along folks. Nothing to see here. If there's one thing that Thai's will never be confused about, it's money. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumballl Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Bear with me.... So if you see this in the front of the note "@OOO" that's the 1000 Baht note. If you see "@OO", that's the 100 Baht note. Okay, counting zeroes should be easy for anyone. Well, perhaps not everyone. I do not read Thai, nor have the luxury (ha!) of having a Thai keyboard to enter the correct symbol on the bank notes. But I know the difference between "oh" and "oooh". P.S. Maybe the odd shape for the 1000 Baht note is meant to assist the blind. Edited December 16, 2020 by Gumballl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 In other news, banknotes are almost a thing of the past. I expect Thailand to follow 100 years too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you look in your wallet it's the TOP of the note you see....not the bottom or the colour! Please correct me if I'm wrong. You could always put the new notes in upside down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always go out with a variety of bills so I can match any occasion. You only take 1 bill? What if you go to 5 bars? And want to take home a rental or two?
