Hey all, I know this question has been covered a lot here, we have our dtv visa and ww have wise and Revolut and true money account. So we didn’t think we would need a Thai bank account since they are almost impossible to open. But our medical insurer Allianz has just told us we need a Thai bank account for reimbursement as since October 1st they no longer do it by cheque! Has anyone had any luck whatsoever of opening even a basic bank account here in Thailand on their dtv visa, either alone or through an agent? Many thanks in advance!
