Yes, back the right side of 69/£, right now. Wonder what's caused the slide so fast?

 

Who cares

 

Hope it's the start of a tanking to 75/£

[Anfield 8]

Heres hoping it keeps going the right

I`ve always found the rates on the link above to be within 0.2 of a baht of the rate

you get using a nationwide flex account card.

Canadian Dollar not as good as February, but better then March - and Canadian dollar passed 90 cents to the US dollar. Haven't seen that in a long time.

The Canadian Dollar held up pretty good with the bahts up swing, i think the baht will come back down earth soon. Keep watching that canadian dollar it should pull par with the u.s. dollar, lots of oil in the tar sands and gold in those hills and Mr Bush spending money faster than he can print it

I assume that's the price bbk bank sells (to customer) at? Not a bad deal actually. My local Travel Agent (big company) in England, were selling at 64.8 yesterday, with mid price ay 69.1/£.

 

They then have the cheek to proclaim NO COMMISION

 

The baht is a dog currency - worth no better than 75.0/£. Why? Because I say so Pic of me beating up baht. Get down dog, get down....

Wow. I don't what he did but does he really have to do that or can he provide service in kind from a Soi 6er ?

 

Keep us posted, I really don't want one of out fellow BMs lickin' taint.

Looks as if baht could hit 70 to the pound any day now-showing at 69.25 on Bangkok Bank site-happy days are here again-especially as I will be over there in 2 weeks,hope it holds till then!

8K baht per day X 10 days = 80,000. 5% variance = 4K baht or 2 LTs. Please keep rising Mr. Baht

[ben99 0]

70.1/£ now.

This fall has been quite dramatic. I'm not greedy though and will settle for an average of 70.0 - right through my holiday.

 

It's bound to have a mini rally - but keep cool and it should continue to weaken.

 

Whatever the rate, I won't be withdrawing massive amounts of baht from ATM - as theft of a large amount of cash, would negate the good exchange rate for whole holiday.

70 to the Pound is a great rate and we can't ask for much more than that
