michael888 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 What is the best (cheapest) way to transfer money to the states. Will be traveling there also, is it better to withdraw with my Thai debit card when I get there? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael888 Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 will be transferring from bank to bank most likely, unless there is a more cost efficient method. I've heard about some ridiculous fees. Also, would it be cheaper to do with internet banking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beechguy Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 How much are you talking about? I don't remember the fees, but didn't have any problems doing a SWIFT transfer from my Bangkok Bank account to my U.S account. If not a huge amount, exchange Baht for dollars in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutterby Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I will be visiting Thailand in a feww weeks and a friend has asked me to bring cash in new $100 bills because he can get a better exchange rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSteve Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yes, if exchanging cash, new $100 bills get the best exchange rate, But ATM and wire rates will still be better.
