Zero

Government guarantee for depositors.

And don't forget to claim your 15% withholding tax back.

TMB will give 2.5% on their "no fixed", but limited number of free monthly withdrawals, no withholding tax up to 10,000 Baht interest, but no ATM facility.

You are correct, it's B50m guaranteed until sometime mid next year, after that B1m per bak and depositor, ?

TMB =This opens interesting combination options.

I wonder why the cashier in TMB offered me an ATM card when I opened my "no fixed" account the other day?

She was very keen about it being the only card that allows for free withdrawals from any bank's ATM machines.

Did you take the card and does it work?

The website

http://www.tmbbank.com/personal/deposits/nofixed/tmb-no-fixed-account-en.php

says no

Transactions through TMB ATM and TMB Phone Banking is not allowed for TMB No Fixed Account

and my local bank told me no ATM card available for this account..

Please enlighten me a little more as this is the first time I heard about and it sounds interesting.

In which cases should it be possible to reclaim the witholding tax on interests and what is the procedure?

I didn't take the card and that is what I understood from the website also.

I may go in there next week and ask her about it.
