TLDR : Answer Summary
When looking for the best bank in Pattaya for opening a retirement account as a foreigner, Bangkok Bank is frequently recommended for its ease of account opening and English-speaking staff. Kasikorn Bank is also a popular option, especially noted for its banking app. Additionally, TTB offers an All Free account with no ATM withdrawal fees, making it favorable for those concerned about banking fees.

For fees the best is the TTB All Free account. Free ATM withdrawals at all ATMs in Thailand.

The best, to deal with for your visa is Bangkok Bank. My experience is that the majority of staff (if not all) speak English fluently to deal with any issues you may have.

Krung Sri and Kasikorn have the best banking apps.

Bangkok bank for ease of opening. I get a good interest rate as well. w/ATM. They will hassle you for about 30 minutes trying to sell you insurance but all you need to do is keep saying no.
