Would you please recommend a agent that can help me open a bank account in Bangkok? I have read about a couple of popular agents but they are based in Pattaya so I'm not sure if they can open accounts in BKK.
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around finding an agent to assist with opening a bank account in Bangkok. Users suggest that although some agents operate in Pattaya, there are also agents in Bangkok, albeit potentially at higher costs. Recommendations include using One Stop Visa for assistance and some banks like Bangkok Bank for services. It's mentioned that the banking process may vary based on the type of visa held, and advice is given about managing banking through mobile apps and minimizing fees.

What visa do you have? Get you paperwork together and try to apply yourself . It doesn't matter where your account is. The bank will set up the app on your phone so you can do everything you need with the app and it's free. A card is 400 bht a year and you get hit with fees if you use it away from your local branch. It's not that hard if language is a barrier take a Thai friend better still go to her bank. In bkk there should be staff with good English. Don't forget it's Thailand they have the power 555 l always start with can you help me

He is in Pattaya. Bangkok is much more expensive. He uses Bangkok Bank. I'll message you his email to me explaining how everything works if you'd like. Someone on here said it may be 50 cents extra per withdrawal away from Pattaya but if you use your phone app it is free. He can explain it much better than I can. Search One Stop Visa on You Tube and you can watch some interviews with him and several different channels. He knows his stuff and is very well known and reputable. Good luck with it.

Thank you for the insight. Do you then live in Pattaya? If you live in BKK do you find it inconvenient to have your bank in another city?
