Cashing Travelers Checks- What's The Current Fee?

[favre04]

Can anyone tell me what the banks are charging to cash travelers checks? Say, on an American Express $100 check.

I'm trying to avoid the new ATM fees.

Thanks in advance!

The 33 baht is correct.

If you are really interested and have the time to search around you may find that some particular bank has an arrangement with American Express which will allow them to charge slighltly less. But it will take you a lot of searching about, and someone in the bank who understands what you mean...and you'll just save a few baht per check. Is it worth the effort...I don't know?
