Howitzer Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 The superrich area is not easy to access especially during the holiday period. Are there any other money changers please tell if you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Vasu, right underneath the Nana BTS station, on the Suk Soi 7 side of Sukhumvit Road. There's also various other branches of SuperRich around, though they may not have the same exchange rates as the main branch, including a relatively new one inside the Asoke BTS station right near the 2nd floor entrance to Terminal 21 mall.

sniffdog Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Actually Vasu is located on soi 7/1 (opposite Subway) NOT on soi 7 (Beer Garden). Another good exchanger is Siam Exchange om Phaya Thai Road), opposite MBK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howitzer Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 So the best rates are still at the super rich location opposite central world that is the most crowded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Actually Vasu is located on soi 7/1 (opposite Subway) NOT on soi 7 (Beer Garden). Another good exchanger is Siam Exchange om Phaya Thai Road), opposite MBK. I didn't say it was on or at Soi 7. I said it was on the Soi 7 (odd numbered sois) side of Sukhumvit Road, underneath the Nana BTS station, both of which are correct. But yes, it is exactly at the corner of the main road and Suk 7/1. Vasu, right underneath the Nana BTS station, on the Suk Soi 7 side of Sukhumvit Road. Edited April 10, 2015 by TallGuyJohninBKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 So the best rates are still at the super rich location opposite central world that is the most crowded? I don't really ever use those businesses. But in the past, when I've looked at their exchange rates, the CentralWorld area SuperRich seemed to have somewhat better rates than the other branches. It's been a while since I looked, though. They do list a lot of that info on their website, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fey Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 almost every bank has a booth, why dont you use those. all rates are just about the same or at least no more them a mrt ticket difference would cost. always ask for a receipt first before you had the money under at these booths. the mtb bank near patong tried to give me $32 usd for 1500 baht.

sniffdog Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 You never compared the rates between banks and these exchange dervices. If you really have large amounts its really worth the trouble. My friend exchanged 10,000 usd and the difference wad around 2,000 baht. But yes for small amounts use the nearest bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
