Managed to get 23.97 bahts after some bargaining at GM.
Arcade - 23.80
J8 - 23.84
Bkk Forex - 23.86

Yes, you can said that as I prefer to drink and listen to live music. Sometimes, our Bros Naemlo and IMO drop by.

Yr info on the above is definitely NOT correct. I hv check wif the bank staff there they told me that they hv NEVER ever offer such a high rate before .

The exchange rate offered by UOB Thai is only a few points higher than most other Thai banks in LOS.

The last days UOB - Thai is offering ard 23.74 while the other Thai banks r offering bet 23.58 to 23.68 in Bkk.

In fact a MC just round the corner where the Erawan four face Buddha is is offering a much better rate of 23.85.

So i wonder where do U get yr 23.92 @ UOB Thai ?????

Jai yen yen.... Physically, BlueDragon192 is in BKK maybe once a month, guess BlueDragon193 got the rates either online or from his friend in BKK and furthermore rates changes fast daily.

Anyway, a small sum if u change 1000, u only lose out (23.92-23.74) X 1000 abt 180THB.

This is why even I stay in BKK, I dun go around looking for best rates. I always once a month change a few thousands SGD from UOB opp my apartment. I find it funny, some because of few hundreds or few bahts, go around the banks look for the best rates every days.... The effort n transportation is more costly.

A Happy and Blessed Year of Rabbit to U.

Not really, i was in BKK for a short holiday only, Dragon land is still my play ground lah......hehe......

In fact, in Bkk i only enjoy the makan n shopping for skin n body care products. The skin n body products r really "good value" in BKK. With the current CNY offer we purchase many at less than 1/3 of price in Spore. Mainly from Watson n Boots.

We bought more than 25,000 baht worth of supplies......haha.... The only set back both these two stalls did not participate in the "VAT" refund thus no GST rebate. But still very worth buy to me.

The rate I mentioned was taken from their website morning rate quote on 4/02 and as day go on the rate will definite changed.
This is the bank website that I check for info and usually quite accurate when I went in to changed.
