Default Australia to Thailand - currency questions

Why worry???

Bring cash, change at UOB, they give always best rate!

Better than plastic or travellers cheques, always.

I've only used ATMs for the last 10 years or so to withdraw money and bought
things with a credit card. The banks will charge a fee (of course!) for the
ATM bit I still think that's better than worrying about finding somewhere to
change travellers cheques.

I will be travelling from Australia to Thailand soon.

I am thinking about the best way to handle the currency conversion of
Australian dollars to Thailand's Baht.

How can I get the best exchange rate?

Should I use an Australian bank to convert the currency?

Should I just use ATMs in Thailand?

Any other general advice from anyone who has experience in this area
would be much appreciated

Thank You

I have used my AussieDebitCard 9https://aussiedebitcard.com in
Thailand. I made a single deposit prior to my trip and then withdrew
cash at ATMs, very convenient.
