  4. Whatever commission your UK bank charges on TCs... (eg 1.5% at Post Office) A local charge in Thailand of 33 baht/cheque, hence larger denominations work out better. A better exchange rate for TCs of about 30 satang/£1 over cash. It is hard to compare the exchange rate with ATM withdrawals unless you take notes but other than the local 150 baht charge, there is often a standing charge from your UK bank, and a further commission that gets hidden in a poorer exchange rate.
