That is enough to tide me over to the next day if the SuperRich in the basement of Suvarnabhumi Airport is closed when I arrive next week.

Before Covid there were other booths with competitive rates.

Don't know the current situation.

9In Pattaya particularly if you are on Soi Buakhao,  TT is pretty much consistent giving the best rate. You don't believe knock yourself out in the heat to prove me a bit wrong. 

On Soi 22, corner Soi Buakhao across from Treetown north end corner T.T rates posted,  further South,  across from Soi Pothole T. T.  Further down across from Cheap Charlie, Hospital T. T.  Rates all three the same. 

Second road  corner T. T.  Not sure this one open?

Beach road,  T. T. Just before Soi 7, 

If you are at Big C Extra there is a T.T. there but it give a slight lower rate usually from my tracking  .10 lower

I don't know of a Super Rich in Pattaya

One of the odder sites during Covid was seeing Exchange Booths being hoisted onto the back of lorries and driven away. Saw it twice.

everyone needs to be aware of it.

You are whining about 200 Baht. 

Are you sure Thailand is the right place for you?

Well that's a pretty stupid comment.  200 baht is a good meal and a beer. Now if someone was changing $1,000 then that would be 2,000 baht less. Up to you but I'd rather have the extra bahts anyday.

Whining about 200 Baht makes Thailand the ideal place.

The guy made a mistake - give him a break. He went to an exchange booth that he had been to on previous occasions, without realising ownership had changed.

 

He won't do it again. Lesson learned.

The USD being where it is today, I wouldn’t even notice a bad exchange rate ???? ???? ???? 

Glad I have not exchanged currency in almost a decade. I keep around 200K in a Thai bank for my Thailand holidays.

And the old story still unchanged.

Maximum rip-off at the airport next day:

 

But that's their buying rate which is always lower than their selling rate

And then?

The bank buys your currency. What 99% of >arriving< tourists intend to do.

Typical exchange booths don't even show a sell rate.

I still have a few thousand baht from my last trip before the pandemic. That is enough to tide me over to the next day if the SuperRich in the basement of Suvarnabhumi Airport is closed when I arrive next week. That exchange location is convenient because it is very near the Airport Link station entrance.

I have read they are open.......
