Super Rich (Ratchadamri) Money Exchange?

[Er6f]

Every exchange booth here in Phuket seem to be 30 baht or more under the exchange rate at yahoo finance for 100 usd exchange..

However, Super Rich (Ratchadamri) actually gives you much better exchange rate. Do they have any exchange booths in Phuket?

I usually use the exchange booth which says just "money exchange" on rat-something-pee road (road between bangla road and Jung Cecylon), since they seem to give the best rate. Any better booths?

Major banks give you the worst exchange rate..

Major banks give you the worst exchange rate..

Bangkok Bank claim to be best on large currencies like USD, try both the Rat ut thit 200 phi road Patong Branch and their exchange boots. Central shoppingcenter banks seem to be the worst for exchange

Yahoo is wrong. Always has been. As it has already been said no Super Rich here, only in Bangkok. The link you have above seems pretty accurate. I compared it to Bangkok Banks website and it was the same rate. I f you want to check for your self see this link: http://www.bangkokbank.com/bangkok%20bank/web%20services/rates/pages/fx_rates.aspx

And for some reason the Baht is getting stronger again against most major currencies.
