How can I pay for a fruit shake in Thailand using a QR code with a DTV visa?

@Daniel *********

Then find a Thai friend accompanying you. A DTV is a DYV and not a tourist visa. And on a real tourist visa: you can open a bank account just fine!

@Angelo **********

i usualy go with my thai girlfriend. no you cannot open a bank account on a tourist visa anymore. like i told you, things have changed this year. inform yourself before spreading misinformation. you would need bribes and a sketchy way to do this right now.

@Angelo **********

There is no law you cannot open a bank account without a visa.

It just are rules banks use because they have obligations to prevent whitewashing money

@Angelo **********

Please don't tell lies here, DTV belongs to category tourist visa. If you don't agree, please show official document that tell different.

@Enrico *******

Then they should try the next bank ... simple.

@Angelo **********

can you be more condescending? There are countless people who tried multiple banks just in this group alone. How about you stop talking about things you don’t know nothing about?

@Enrico *******

Regarding your photo: it most likely is his nationality that makes him troubles and definitely not the visa.

@Enrico *******

It is up to the bank if they give you an account or not. Just try next bank.

There are forums about opening bank accounts. Perhaps ask there?

DTV is not a tourist visa, it is a DTV. And on a tourist visa you easy get a bank account.

You get a bank account on visa exempt.

The guy who knows nothing is you.

Opening a bank account is a business transaction. Perhaps go into the bank with proper clothing, proper shoes a smile and say "Sawasdee Khrap" as greeting?

Otherwise bite the bullet and ask an agent. Wow, an agent can make a bank account on a DTV? So? Obviously the kind of visa is not the problem ...

Good bye.

@Angelo **********

you are wrong again. thailand made it a lot more restricted this year. things have changed. opening a bank account is a lot harder now and doesnt work in most cases. thats the bitter reality now. ;) believe it or not. using an agent is sketchy and could cause in closure of your account at any point where thai authorities will initiate the next crack down. same as they did with house/land owners this/last year

@Daniel *********

There are no changes. This is a Facebook myth.

@Luit ****************

No it is not. It is a DTV visa.

And you can open a bank account on any stamp.

Even visa excempt.

@Angelo **********

Maybe you don't consider it as a tourist visa, that is up to you, the Thai authorities do.

180 days stay is not a long stay

@Luit ****************

No they don't. They consider it a DTV visa. Because that is what it is.

@Angelo **********

yes it us a DTV visa, that does NOT belong to the category long term visa that are meant to live in Thailand, that is why most banks do not accept it to open an account, but you can live in your own myth of course.

@Gary ********

I’ll grab a photo for you next time 🙏

@Bo *********

They have this urge to demean Boomers. I guess cuz they are kinda mentally limited?

@Bo *********

ok 🤣🤣

@Ken *******

The clown is you. Answering questions with answers that do not match the question. Why waste your typing skills about that?

@Paul ******

the one in terminal21 still does, probably because asoke receives a lot of foreigners. anyway, if they don't want cash, i'm always happy to spend it somewhere else

@Deepak ******

But the question was: how to pay with QR code?

Or?

Am I am bad with reading?

So your answer: MAKES NO SENSE.

How can I take a train from BKK to CM? Take a plane!!

You see? Completely nonsense.

@Angelo **********

Use credit card

@Deepak ******

Still not answering the question. And small vendors do not accept credit cards.

@Sab ****

you have to send money first. But you don’t have to give your bank details. You can do a manual transfer but that actually takes 2-4 days at the moment

They have instant top up but only if you connect your bank/wise account

@Sab ****

true but not true. The QR code you’re talking about is line pay, not so common in street vendors. OP is asking about prompt pay

@Romain ***

try Moreta app. They support prompt pay.

@Sab ****

if I need to pay 3% thanks but no thanks haha

@Sab ****

that's weird, I can't get Line to accept my Starling or Revolut?

@Jonathan **********

you can authenticate your line with passport and then access all options. You can to do it at bts station as far as I know with rabbit card that’s what I did 3 years ago

@Romain ***

many thanks

@Jonathan **********

in the wallet tab, click "create line pay wallet" and then in the settings "add card" - i was able to pick my Revolut card"

@Jonathan **********

works for me. Do you have the tab "wallet" in your line app?

@Milan ********************

Not surprised they love making things difficult… wouldn’t let me have one because they changed the law 1 week before I went to the bank… so I now share my bank account with my Thai girlfriend and problem solved aha

@Sherif *******

: yes. I have agent

@Dan ********

not possible under 50yo for visa exempt as of this month

Anonymous participant 804 Each bank and each branch has their own policy. Your branch may have told you that, but another branch will still interpret things in their own way. There is no policy that applies nationwide to all banks.

@Paul ******

all the visa agents told me that. I’ve contacted many in several provinces.

@Philipp *********

You opened it with VISA EXEMPT. And not with a tourist visa. A 30 day tourist visa does not even exist.

@Philipp *********

would you mind sharing the agent contact ?

@Philipp *********

please would you assist with one

@Hafmin *****

you’ll have to pay an agent about 4-6k. With demand going up, this service will be 10k soon.

@Enrico *******

yes but every Thai person is on line, whenever i asked if i could send line pay instead, many agreed

@Sharon ********

click on wallet inside the line app and create line pay wallet, then add your revolut card in the settings

@Stefani *******

you can check on the website where Revolut is based. I think Lithuania or UK. I got my card years ago in Germany if that matters.
