PattayaPhom Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Chonburi and Bang Na freeways have been free for at least the past 4 years so good its the same again. With the amount of movement this time of year tailbacks would be horrendous if they wernt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigermonkey Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 (edited) What's the betting that all the ATMs run out of cash before lunch on the 1st. That would not surprise me, since nobody truly reads things thoroughly. The promise of no fees is for "transfers" and not for withdrawals. Of course, many expats will run out of beer or bar fine money, go to the ATM and then come on here whinging about the Thais always lying, stealing, etc Happy New Year !

The article clearly says Dec, 31 through Jan. 6. You were almost a week early, but don't let facts interfere with your whinging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many transfers did you make? Since the standard fee is 30 Baht I'm guessing you made 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For every ray of light that shines and brings relief, some will find a dark cloud to block it out and cast the shadows of negative thinking.
