150b is stated is admin fee but there is also the exchange rate conversion charge/loss. Next time you withdraw, check your balance (in THB) before withdrawal and then after you withdraw, check the balance (in THB) again. The difference after deducting your withdrawal amount is the fees/charges. Usually when I withdraw 10,000b or more, it comes to around 500b which is very high
Yo, you can't win with banks. Even if thb150 admin is waived, 'extras' on other fees/charges (credit card > banks) do add up. Double whammy, exchange rate sucks (good margin added). Price for convenience, and livelihood for banks.
Think there's a distinct difference between Cirrus VISA and your DIRECT debit ATMs (latter I referred to in my post).

On a serious note the FL pricing at In Love Cafe (Krua Kan Aeng) is not cheap.
Even the damn beer and snacks are expensive!
You get a mysterious atmosphere in the restaurant when you go there late after midnight.
Something like in an espionage movie plot waiting for your link up (in this case a FL) to turn up.
Think 13 Coins Restaurant Ratchada (sitting at a table by the 2 lifts separated by the fish tanks) but darker and more dodgier.
Sukhumvit (as in lower Sukhumvit from around soi 1 to soi 23) still have more farangs staying. Asians like Japs stay in upper Sukhumvit like Thonglor/ ekamai but cheong in lower Sukhumvit. Farangs are more open to staying right middle in the cheonging places
You think BKK is stone age primitive village? LOL. Likely it has more ATM/7-11/convenience stores than KL or Spore.
Not exactly. 150b is stated is admin fee but there is also the exchange rate conversion charge/loss.

I am a cash-n-carry kind of guy and avoid all the fees and charges alltogether. I put the money in the safe and exchange a couple of days worth of cheonging money at a time. In a pinch, I could always use USD in exchange for service
Have a great CNY! Make a lot of money! Make a lot of love!

Pii Tony poot Thai mai chart pom poot Thai mai dai krap!
Happy CNY bro! U r spot on about the place & thanks for the Thai name, I forgot what it was called. That is why I asking if he can speak Thai... if not waste time or worst kana carrot!
Personally I think its over rated, sure they have SYTs, but their attitude are bad, prices quoted as if hii bpen thong and more chances of airplane u after first shot! If u have time & patience then MAYBE this is the place if not SC, NEP, Patpong & my fav Saphan Kwai way better ROI!
