TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation revolves around using a Wise account to transfer money to a Thai bank account while having a different Thai SIM card number. Users confirm that it is possible to use a Thai SIM to manage the Wise account without needing to keep the original SIM used for setup. It's also established that a Thai bank account is required for the transfers.

Yes it works with a Thai SIM. I deactivate my UK which is my primary number and the one I had when setting up wise. Whilst I'm Thailand I use wise to transfer money from the UK to my Thai account with only my Thai number active.

When I go to Thailand, I turn on flight mode ,then turn it of . I have another clone phone of mine that I put the Thai sim into,

I Just use All my backing Apps just as I do in the UK. WISE, HALIFAX, SANTANDER, STARLING, MESSENGER, WHATSAPP.

NO PROBLEM!!

I use both my uk sim phone and my Thai sim phone to transfer from wise

I think you may just have to set your wise account up on your Thai phone which may have to be verified from your other sim phone
