Can I use a different Thai phone number with my Wise account to transfer money to a Thai bank account?
Not visa related if I use my wise account to transfer money to open Thai bank account but use a Thai sim card (different number) to one on account will my money still be transferred. Thanks
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.

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
