.. Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 The $500 limit is crazy! I agree. But the US is a credit society, not a cash one, so I get it. Actually, I had to beat them hard to get the $500 limit. Normal is $200! Cheers, SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drogon Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 What the hell 500$???? About Thai banks: Provided you have enough on your account (and your credit history etc...) you can change your daily and monthly limits. I did it and it was without problems (at least 10 months ago and I had quite a bit more than 1K bht on the account thus without problems) Note: Even my Spanish banks did not make a fuss when I asked to raise my daily limit to something about 60K bht/day both for my debit cards (visa electron and mastercard debit) and my credit cards (visa and mastercard) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooNoi Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 GD, Where did you get the $12 figure from? I bank with Commonwealth in Oz, and when I was in LOS last month, it was about $4.00AUD per withdrawal - same same as its been for a long time.

gobbledonk Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Its a percentage - havent worked out the exact figure, but almost $12 on a withdrawal of $330 has me thinking that the percentage is < 4%, if my maths is any good - just comes as shock when you see it on the statement. What was the amount for your $4 fee ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooNoi Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 You could be right, GD. I just had a look at the CBA's Terms and Conditions for Streamline Savings Acct and it seems that there's $2.00 fee PLYS percentage now.. but they still charged me the flat-rate of $4.00 per withdrawal last month in LOS regardless of the size of withdrawal - 100 baht or 20,000 baht. Maybe they terms and conditions are for new accounts. Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
