Buying traveller's cheques in pp?
Does anyone know if you can buy traveller's cheques in PP?
I'm closing down a bank account and want to take the money out of cambodia without doing a bank transfer, but don't fancy traveling with a lot of cash.

Do people still use travellers cheques? I haven’t seen one in years.
I’d be really, really surprised if you can get them here.
An international bankers draft may be possible, but is that really much different from a international bank transfer? it probably would be more expensive and awkward if at all possible.

Have Cambodia even ever issued travelers checks?
pew, pew, pew, pew!
Pretty sure that it was announced several years back that Cambodian banks would no longer accept or issue travellers cheques
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
For Christ sakes man, this is 2022 and we have bitcoin and usdt usdc. Use Binance via a P2P client. Binance holds the funds in escro until both parties have transacted. Then sell it straight away and transfer your chosen fiat currency straight into your chosen bank. Transaction doesn't come from a crypto source. Direct bank to bank transfer.
The first time I travelled overseas in the 90s I used travellers cheques. I was teased for it then being outdated.

Does Wise work? I’ve sent a few Wise transactions from US to various international locations, saves a huge amount on transaction costs and gets a good currency exchange rate.

I recently got money sent from a third party in Australia to my Wise account (UK address if that’s relevant) and then sent that money to my ABA account.
All ok.
All ok.
pew, pew, pew, pew!
Really?
How else would you do it, apart from cash or credit cards?
I used them in Thailand as did everyone else in the 90s.
pew, pew, pew, pew!
regular credit/debit cards were taking over. Not to mention those multi currency travel cards.
"Goodness me! Now STD free..."
Everyone used them in Phnom Penh in the late 1990s/early 2000s (there were no ATMs, widespread/home internet usage, etc here back then). I used to buy them (and cash them) at the floating casino.
what was that bank near sharkies that did free VISA cash?
