Hello, 

I’m going to be transferring £10,000+ in one transfer to Thailand.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a particular bank etc.. for the transfer ? 

Thank you

    Not one that would normally be discussed in the ISAs section.
    Wise is often mentioned for more trivial sums. I don't know if the size of the transfer would change the situation.

    I've used Wise for several thousand to Thailand, quick and painless

    I use Wise for all my transfers to Thailand, although they are getting a bit stricter on ID verification these days, nothing to worry about if your aren't doing anything dodgy.

    Key Currency have also been advertising heavily and promising decent rates, not tried them yet.

    I have suggested moving this thread to Budgeting & bank accounts - lots of exiting threads there on this topic.
