Stuart8 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Is there an ATM at the airport that doesn't charge a transaction fee for foreign bank cards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 No. TMB and SCB have exclusive rights at SBIA, and both charge the foreign ATM (150 THB) fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibear1 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 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???

britmaveric Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Depends on the card - few places apart from Thailand I am charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkt83100 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) 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 >:-((Edit: Typo corrected) Edited September 27, 2009 by hkt83100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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??? 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tw25rw Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I think the answer now is to take as much out as possible at each visit. Minimise the effect of the fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tw25rw Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Credit cards are more likely to attract those big cash fees than debit cards. Keep them for emergency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 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?
