TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around which banks to use for managing visa-related funds in Thailand. While Bangkok Bank is mentioned as a popular choice, it is suggested to consider other banks like Kasikorn Bank (KBank) and Siam Commercial Bank due to various factors such as transfer limits and banking services. Many commenters express satisfaction with KBank’s app and services, indicating that having multiple accounts for different purposes can be beneficial.

I have a Bangkok Bank account I do all my monthly spending out of and also a KBank account for my money I need for my visa. I could have used just one account for both, but decided not to, and it’s worked out for me.

The limit of 50,000 Baht in international transfers is ONLY for people who use WISE to transfer the money and ONLY for people using a bank OTHER THAN Bangkok Bank, Siam Commercial Bank or Kasikorn Bank. So stick to these 3.

Ots a light hearted colloquial joke my triggered and somewhat unsophisticated friend. How am I making fun of the poster exactly? A bit or an overreaction I’d say…I deserve hell no less….You’d never have the cajones to spit that unjust vitriol face to face. Take your nastiness elsewhere little man.
