Has anyone who has a DTV been pulled aside and were asked to show bank balance and not have the full 500k cash in their bank account?

Just curious to know if they can deny you from entering because you don’t have the full amount.
Answer summary
The question asks if anyone with a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) has been denied entry into Thailand due to not having the full required 500,000 baht in their bank account. A comment suggests it's important to carry at least 20,000 baht or its equivalent in cash when entering Thailand.
