without going into the details the overall best deal is an account with a local bank that has a branch in your country,i use bkk bank- they are in new york,and transfer money from my american account(not in new york and not bkk bank!) to the bkk bank account in thailand.regardless of the sum the fee is 25 $ and there are no withdrawal fees if you use their machine where you have the account.
This is correct. It's not a complicated process, really. Direct bank-to-bank transfers tend to be the most secure and hassle-free. Sur-charges tend to be nominal to free. Nearly all worldwide accredited financial institutions have SWIFTCODE cash transfers at the ready. If problems arise.....one has account numbers and bill of lading proof to fall back on. Just find respective banks that work for you and your individual needs and desires.
I am an American living in Thailand.
When I want to transfer a few thousand dollars from my US bank to the Bank of Ayudhya, how can I be 100-per-cent sure that the dollars will not be converted to baht until they are here in Thailand?
A few tears ago I lost about $300 on a $2500 transfer. I've had two transfers since then that were okay. I just want to nail it down with the US bank. What do I tell them? Thanks, David
