Which currency exchange gives the best deal around town or is it much of a muchness unless you're exchanging large amounts?

Do Monzo cards work in Thailand?

Your topic heading is very confusing.

 

Most usually associate TT currency with what financial institutions (Banks Wise etc) refer to as the exchange rate for telegraphic transfer (TT). Hence my response.

The company TT Currency Exchange is only in Pattaya not Phuket.

Having just visited the U.K. where I have a reasonably large sum for my next years living expenses I researched this carefully.

superrich green HQ has a better exchange rate for cash £50 notes than Wise (it is also better than the other 2 big players) however it is minimal (as in ฿1,700 extra in about ฿1,000,000) so it is not worth the bother of carrying about 460 notes to Thailand then 1,000 Thai notes to the bank, along with the expense of getting to the HQ in Bangkok. 

 

For much smaller amounts then large denomination notes are an easier way

Within the SuperRich (I wish!) ecosystem, the best rates are to be found at their head office in Ratchaprasong.

Very useful, where on Phuket do we find these?

You don’t. All three big exchange companies have Head Quarters in Bangkok.

 

So it is virtually certain that Wise will give the best exchange rate.

 

I have no information on exchange rates on any islands.

Neither superrichthailand (green) nor superrich1965 (orange) list a branch in Phuket so it looks as if it’s not one of those two (and it’s only the HQ branches that have the best rate, so it’s virtually certain that Wise is going to have a better exchange rate
