Regarding the 500K that is in the bank account in order to qualify for the visa, are there any restrictions as to when / if this can be withdrawn ?
Answer summary
There are no restrictions on withdrawing the 500,000 THB once the visa is issued. The only time you may need to show proof of funds again is when applying for an extension at an Immigration Office in Thailand. Users have reported not being asked about the funds after the initial visa application.

I needed to show the proof of funds to apply for the visa. Since then I’ve been in and out of Thailand a few times and never once been asked about the funds.

You can withdraw it as soon as the visa is issued if you like. Currently, the only time you would need to show it again is if you apply for an extension at an Immigration Office in Thailand
