Geekfreaklover Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Must admit I had to have a 'recovery pint' today.Look forward to the next get-together. Thanks to George for buying some rounds and thanks for Brian who put on a curry fitting of a man wearing military medals. GFL. It was better than Brits "I love Howard" badge. Will be in for the football at the weekend mate, if you are around. Yeah I'll be there Saturday. You gotta love smoking pubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtoad Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Yeah I'll be there Saturday. You gotta love smoking pubs. I'll be there on Saturday as it is Wolves as the early game, but we'll behaving a meet up for the footie mob on the Sunday as it is the Man Utd v Liverpool match as well.

britmaveric Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 I was really surprised to find the AON ATM inside the Cross Bar. Kudos for Brian for saving the lads 150bht fee, and its bloody convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidge Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 That's nice to know now. I had to pay the 150B fee. Was it because i'm not a regular there or did i just not ask nicely enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidge Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 There is a thread about this? I thought 150B was quite reasonable. I was only shocked when i read that others did not have to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkjames Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 (edited) The smart ones among us like to save our money for beer and smokes....not fork it over to greedy Thai banks... Well done. here's a thought for any budding farang entrepreneur vis-a-vis the 150 baht concerns. With Aon apparently the only one's offering free withdrawls, if I owned a pub restaurant I would be calling them to get one installed. Edit to add - I hear that next year free withdrawls at AON Atms will only be for UTD supporters. Sorry Mr. BJ and others..

jfchandler Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I think JFC would tolerate a little second hand smoke to save 150 baht I don't know James, it's the principal of it. NO... re smoking... it's the health of it...or more specifically... the bad health of it (being inhaling second hand smoke). and NO, re ATMs.... it's not the "principal" of it... it's the MONEY of it..... I like to keep mine and enjoy myself when I spend it... not piss it away to a Thai bank ATM... Surely, you guys (those who use Thai ATMs with foreign cards) must be able to figure out something better to do with your 150 bahts than throw them away... It's also painfully obvious to me now that all that cigarette smoke is not only polluting your lungs but your brains as well... For the record, since it's been repeatedly missed in posts above... it is AEON ATMs... not AON... AON is a risk management and reinsurance company.... I don't believe they're in the ATM business. Surely they teach spelling in British schools...sometime...right??? And I do believe you mean "principle" not "principal" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She would travel 15 miles to save 1.50 on her shopping. Spent more on gas to get there and back - but it was the principle. AON not a bank?

jfchandler Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 By the way, since you guys have started cross-pollinating threads here (just in case some of you don't know what that means, you can PM me for an explanation... ), I hope you all read TV member Jim Gant's fine analysis showing that.... In essence, using a no-fee ATM card and ATMs at both ends, your home country and here in Thailand, is pretty much the absolute most cost effective to move funds into Thailand -- almost always, better than even free or low cost international wires, because you're getting a better exchange rate via the ATM... For those of you capable of reading, you can find Jim's fine post right here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 James James... when will you get your head out of footie and live in the real world... And...re your comment, I don't travel any extra to accommodate my ATM habits... The placement of AEON ATMs happens to fit very nicely with my travel and out-and-about habits...

jfchandler Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 No... but... Siam Paragon does have an AEON ATM (in the basement)... I'm sure you and/or the ATM-challenged smoke-addicts could manage to stop by there...from time to time...for some reason... Maybe have a bowl of mush at KCa Ramen...

Truth be told John, I have a Thai bank account and while I sympathize with your 150 baht issue, quite frankly scarlet, I don't give a <deleted>. KC Ramen = great gyoza.
