Jingthing Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 The travel agency across the street from Tony's disco, Walking street. Good rates, and they also have lots of ones if you need for places like Laos and Cambodia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mobi Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Bank Gold in Rungland off Pattaya Tai usually has the best rates. They will sell you any currency, no commission, and if they don't have it in stock, you can order it - takes one day max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They buy at one rate and sell at another rate, just like any bank. The difference is that the rates are better and there are no additional charges or commission that the banks charge. Clear now?

Better rates, and no extra charges. Got it now?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 ^^ Come on soutpeel. Last word? ^^^^^^^^ Not sure about a travel agent opposite Tony's in WS but just a few yards before that, there's Yenjit Exchange, Travel, Massage (sea side, opposite a Family Mart). Been there for years and when I used them last time, they were the best WS exchange rates. Maybe that's the same place as Jing recommends? I bought houses from the owner over 20 years ago and the service and rates have always been exemplary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
