Jo då på AEON atm slipper du dom och tydligen på Citibanks atm också
EXCELLENT NEWS!!!! Today, I had a chance to confirm precisely what ThaiHome has posted below...
Indeed, the Citibank ATMs located in the Interchange 21 Tower at the corner of Sukhumvit and Asoke roads, accessible by a new skybridge from the Asoke BTS station, DO NOT charge the 150 baht foreign card withdrawal fee. Let me repeat that. DO NOT CHARGE THE 150 BAHT RIPOFF FEE!!!!!
Citibank appears to have made their Thailand headquarters in the Interchange 21 Tower, and their presence there includes a bank branch and a row of ATM and cash deposit machines.
I tested the ATM machines there for myself today, and did a comparison with the same routine U.S. bank VISA debit card a bit later at an AEON ATM. Then went home and checked online banking to confirm. No 150 baht withdrawal fee and the same exchange rate as the AEON ATM. And the rate was just about what I would have expected, 30.12 compared to a Friday Interbank Exchange Rate of 30.246.
In the Interchange 21 Tower, the Citibank ATMs are located on level B1. To access them, if you arrive via the BTS Skybridge, you come in on level UL, and then go down either the escalator or elevator a couple floors to level B1. The ATMs and Citibank branch are right there as you exit the elevator.
Perhaps, the fact that the Citi ATMs don't charge the 150 baht ATM fee makes some sense because Citibank is not part of the Thai Bankers Association, the Thai banks trade group that hatched the 150 baht scheme, just the same as AEON is not part of the TBA...
