U still have to do a TT from SG to Thailand... TT fee will charge in both SG and Thailand. The exchange rates is not in favor of u. With all these, u still have the hassles of fees, exchange rates.....
If u dun stay in Thailand or frequent Thailand then I dun see the benefit of TT from SG bank to Thai bank.
Local account is good for those regular in Thailand. With SGD, change to THB n when in Thailand deposit the THB into the Thai bank. Withdraw when u need, if u leave Thailand, just leave the THB in the bank for next trip.
Those who dun frequent Thailand, I dun see the point why bother about 10, 20 or 30 SGD transaction fee?? Dun make yourself miserable when u are on a tour. When u need money, just withdraw else what can u do when u have no money and want to save the transaction fee?? Beg or sell ass?
