How can I manage my UK bank account while living in Thailand and receive verification codes?

If you have a Uk mobile number that you want to keep 'live' after moving to Thailand.. and want to avoid periodic top-ups on a PAYG sim.. or contract fees for a tariff you cannot use abroad.. then consider moving your number to expatfone.. which gives you a virtual Uk mobile that is accessible via an app.. so it can be used on any handset or tablet etc.. and you get free calls to Uk landlines and mobiles (from Thailand) without ever having to disclose you are out of country.. very useful if you need to call your Uk bank or they need to call you.. and you can send and receive sms messages as well.. so solves your bank verification sms concerns.. there is a monthly fee (works out at about £2 weekly) but it's much cheaper than any alternative i could find.. and if you return to the Uk to live.. you also have the option of porting your number out to another service provider.. so you don't lose your number.. for me it was a no-brainer really!

I changed my number to my Thai number and they send it to that.

What is valifications?

Not exactly sure what you mean. Maybe you could explain better exactly what it is you want to do?

U need the phone no if the ever send you verification codes. Luckily my no still can receive messages....despite not paying the top ups....

I can verify via my online banking app however my UK bank have my Thai number so that is where they send any OTP codes

You just need to get the 70’s shoes girl and you will be all set.

Love it. 🌹

I keep my UK accounts live and transfer. Use wise as already mentioned as the middle man and then transfer to Thai bank account.

Keeping money in a bank account is not very effective so just prove the monthly cash flow.

Hi Jason

There’s a few choices

BUT

Here’s your answer

1st transfer will also offer you a discount

I've kept my UK mobile for OTP's

Normally asks to verify through your banking app ( if that's what you mean )
