Why must it be only UOB? On suk main tourist stretch, money changers aplenty -almost every corner. Both housed in malls/shops and stand alone units. Unless you changing big bucks, minor diff will not be worth your while.

Hi guys is it possible to change Sg dollars to Thai Baht at any local UOB?:o

most of the branches do not have thai baht. if have their exchange rates will be very low.

[BlueDragon193]

Hi guys is it possible to change Sg dollars to Thai Baht at any local UOB?:o

You can change it from UOB branch at Changi T1 and rate quote are quite low.

The above rate was from UOB branch in Thailand and offer one of the best rate than the local thai banks. Usually, foreign owned banks quote the best rates.

few factors as obviously foreign money is flowing into Thai at a rapid rate to support it, damaging export prospects simultaneously. It is hard to ascertain the source money is coming from and although unclear we can safely speculate that at least some of it is from foreign investors circumventing the capital controls enforced by the "government"

not new reason but the slide of the American dollar resulting from lack of confidence in the American economy sparked by you know what and their disastrous foreign policy. American authorities who try to reduce the value of the massive trade surpluses held by countries such as China does not help as they are denominated in uncle $am dollars.

[yinyang]

Aiyo, the only thing matters is the layman get more bang for our buck... oops, bht:p

Possible major reasons for latest bht change:

1. Outflows from Thailand (rather than capital inflows). Year end squaring up of positions vs US liabilities, orders. Recall opposite happened some years back when we kena pay over our nose for bht, after Temasek paid for AIS

2. Softening exports (big part of GDP) with world's poor economic sentiment and weakening demand

3. Business, foreign investment confidence level -with political uncertainty not out of woods yet (red or yellow tees)

any brother can advise S$=Thai Baht and US$=Thai baht latest rate.
is it better to change here or Bkk ?
Any brother has any idea how much it cost a day to hire a 8 seater van for sight seeing and is it better to go to hotel fm airport by 2 taxis (2 x 4) or take airport coach as hotel is at MBK. I had not been to Bkk for a few years.

many thanks for any brothers advise.
Thanks

Hi,
Save yourself the trouble. if the amount is not significance, Change in SG. Just read the past content in this thread will lead you to the reasonable $ changer in SG. I presume the amount you require to change is approximately S$2.5 k.

Yo, rule of thumb is (usually) better change money at home country vs destination. Partly also due to direct change of home currency than vs other foreign currency linkages (like usd) at destination.

And as you said, will not break the bank either. Btw, S$2.5k is like your personal budget for 1 pax... wah, me not got so deep pockets, hehehe:p:D

Airport limo or 8 seater (available at counters) is more expensive than metered taxi. Do not fall for the taxi/limo touts (with nice gals) in concourse. If you really need 8 seater, go to counter inside or outside and can negotiate list prices. For standard limo 5 seater, range bht700-900 depending on dstination (can haggle down to bht500/600 to Sukhumvit). Dunno price for van or 8 seater. And with a fail safe hotel destination in MBK, metered taxi shd do. And if the Q is longish (busy period stretch to concourse), just go up to departure floor and jump into metered taxis.

As for sight seeing, this depends on private deals with driver. No experience with this, as Bkk is free & easy.

Yours seem constant at 22.80 over last weeks (now I start to understand what some bros are saying on your avatar):).

Going for circa 23 over lasst 1-2 weeks. See bkk bank latest fx rates, you shd get marginally better at money changers (eg GM).

Depends on what you really mean by "rate so bad". And compared to when?

Rate has been hovering ard 23 over last month. And you never know, if rate goes either way. Your "later date" might never come:p

Will the baht weaken against SGD further till 1 SGD to 25 baht like last time?

[Bon Jovi]

with so much happening but baht still remain stable :rolleyes:

[hosayboh]

That's many bros wish. But doubt so as SGD is weakening as well and also ABS maybe able to keep the situation under control.

[leaseoflife]

Wah piang... better dun weaken too much against the Thai Baht... else really go there eat myself.

[perish__]

Wah piang... better dun weaken too much against the Thai Baht... else really go there eat myself.

well, unless you are changing like S$10,000 or more.

the difference is not much....

imagine, you change S$1000 to baht...

even if the rate drop from 23.3 to 22.9 , thats only 400 baht loss.

you are not going to eat yourself with 400 baht loss ya?

[hosayboh]

Hahaha.....good one. n very true...but 400b is one trip from the airport thou....
