Banks waive interprovincial ATM transaction fee

All 15 banks under Thai Bankers Association are waiving fees on interbank and interprovincial cash withdrawals from ATM nationwide.

The waiver, during Nov 4-30, is applied to withdrawals from all banks' ATMs to facilitate clients who flee homes for safety, the TBA said in a statement. Fees on cross-bank transactions will also be waived.
Twatchai Yongkittikul, secretary-general, said "All banks realise the difficulties of clients particularly those who have to move out of their home in light of floods."

Over 4,000 ATMs nationwide are unplugged due to the floods.
