Charge Free Atm At Suvarnabhumi?

[Stuart8]

Is there an ATM at the airport that doesn't charge a transaction fee for foreign bank cards?

[lomatopo]

No. TMB and SCB have exclusive rights at SBIA, and both charge the foreign ATM (150 THB) fee

why often this 150 THB charge question? longtime Thai banks was generous or sleepy and charge nothing. Let's go abroad with any Thai or other credit cards; you will be charged too and if holidays depend on 150 THB I guess better stay at home???

Depends on the card - few places apart from Thailand I am charged.

In Germany even my own bank charges me 5 Euro (~250 Baht) for using their card at their ATM >:-(

And what about those of us who live here? The new ATM fee costs me

1,500 baht a month, which translates to more than $600 a year. Even

if I "stay at home."

BUT the question AND the topic is not imposition of the fee. It's whether

there is a fee-free ATM at the new airport. The simple answer is NO.

Mine doesn't, nor do any of the other German Cash Group member banks.

I think the answer now is to take as much out as possible at each visit. Minimise the effect of the fee.

Indeed!!

Credit cards are more likely to attract those big cash fees than debit cards. Keep them for emergency.

I have SCB accounts (and ATM cards) in both Pattaya and Bangkok. I know if I use the ATM card at an out-of-province SCB machine, there is a small service charge. Is Suvarnabhumi considered to be in Bangkok for purposes of provincial service charges, or is it Samut Prakan province, and hence an SCB Bangkok ATM card would trigger a service charge?

Thai government savings bank doesnt seem to charge the fee.
