Has anyone here ever used Payoneer to transfer money to a visa agent? Thinking of getting a retirement visa later.

Summary so far

This is the LOS (Land Of Scams). The OP doesn't even realise visa agents are neither licenced nor accountable.

Easier to get nasty with someone trying to help you, than to admit you have little idea how "visa agents" operate in Thailand

by entering on a type O visa instead of a tourist entry it is very easy to get the needed Thai bank account.

Why?

because it is very easy to do yourself, unless you don't have the bt800,000.

You apply for the type O visa before you come to Thailand. That gives you the 90 day type O visa you need to open your Thai bank account to transfer in your bt800,000, and after two months apply for your one year extension. It is very easy to do.
