TLDR : Answer Summary
If you're looking to open a bank account in Bangkok while on a tourist visa, there are a few agents that can assist you. One recommendation is "LAWYERS ALLIANCE THAILAND," which reportedly provides services for various types of visas, including tourist visas, typically for around 5000 THB. Another option is "F.S. Consulting" located in Pattaya, which may offer account opening services for 4000-5000 THB without requiring a long-term visa or rental contract. Some users mentioned that the process may take a few weeks, but others reported quick service. It's advisable to prepare for the 2000 THB deposit and possibly additional fees for an ATM card.

F.S. Consulting will open a bank account with Bangkok Bank for 4-5000.- THB, even on a tourist visa. No long term visa or rental contract needed. And no insurance contract included

no, like I said, based in Pattaya. It's 2 hours to Pattaya by a bus. Check into a cheap hotel and visit the agency next morning

it doesn't take 4 weeks to do it, I used mots visa services in Pattaya, I think you need to have 30 days remaining on your current stamp in your passport, they sort it all out in a few days, it's really easy, you accompany the agent to the bank, you don't even queue up. I think it was ฿4000 agent fee, to open the account, + 700 for the ATM MasterCard + deposit ฿2000 in your new account.
