TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the difficulties of opening bank accounts for holders of the DTV visa in Thailand. Many comment that bank accounts associated with DTV visas are being closed and suggest that cash transactions are preferable for tourists. Some express concerns about the future of the DTV visa, hinting at potential changes or cancellations due to misuse and economic issues. A user offers assistance with bank account opening, but others indicate difficulties in direct messaging and suggest trying again later.
Enough of the darn questions about bank accounts!! No more bank accounts for people on DTV visas as we all are tourists. Use cash!! Get it through your thick skulls everyone.

Anonymous participant 964 we are going to such a kind place with some of the meanest people in these visa groups. Its ironic.
He might not be wrong. I had a Thai friend who works at immigration, and there is much talk about how it was a mistake.
I can see this visa being void by the end of 2025, with extensions not being issued. It's being abused and the wrong people (often through agents) and getting this 5 year ability to abuse Thailand. This is just my opinion. We will all have to wait and see.
Thailand as an economy is absolutely broke, they created this visa to allow people to stay and spend money. If anything they are going to allow foreigners to invest money easier in the future.
