Dear all, I created account just to add on this thread to inform all. 'Many say taoyuan airport rates are better. I arrived on 13/1 it was 21.62 at taoyuan airport vs 21.9 at clementi mall. I departed yesterday, it was 21.62 still while cashchanger reflected 22 and above. For your info for those wanting to exchange at taoyuan airport, pls do so in sg. My heart totally sank. Sobs. Taipei 101 exchange rate was 20.91 yesterday

You probably did not read the latest posts about changing in sg is better now. Please do not try to absolve yourself and blame others. The Taiwan bank rates websites are also shared here for everyone to compare.

To be fair to him I have the same problem with the exchange rate on my last trip which is a few years ago.

Luckily for me I changed most of it in sg as I want to play safe. In the end I didn't change anything there as the rate was not good.

Just because One thinks he is more experience and older, he assumed he have the rights to go around labelling other people "strawberry generation".

Travelling is about holiday which supposedly should be a happy thing, sadly it isn't the case here.
What I noticed in my short few weeks of reading this travel forum is that the few frequent posters will always reply newbies in a condescending tone once they asked about repetitive question. While the answer may be Captain Obvious to you, it doesn't mean it is to the newbies.

If it is so tedious to give or direct the newbies then saving the effort of typing is always an option than to give others bad impression of yourself.
