Best way to remit Thai Baht to UK?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I am currently in the process of trying to send some money to the UK as I am about to buy some items from a retail store - about £9k.

 

I have noticed that my exchange rate via Bangkok Bank seems pretty bad. I don't particularly want to send the money to my UK account. Even if I transfer directly from my account to their Business Account it appears I am a few hundred pounds worse off (about 10k) than if my Thai friend sent via Kasikorn Bank.

 

Does anyone know a company such as wise which might get me a better rate? Is Dee Money any good? (rate doesn't seem amazing?)

The last exchange rate quote available for KBank and for BBL bank are:

47.247 and 47.145 which is about .22% difference.

 

Perhaps the difference you're seeing is due to higher fees.

Yes it could be...on Friday I did a "test send" using Dee Money which seemed slightly cheaper.
