Something new! Bangkok bank.
Very stressful, because I have to arrange this for my retirement visa, monthly method.
With all alarming news, about BKK bank freezing accounts, I decided to do the transfer, early in the month, if something goes wrong, I can still find a solution.
Today I send, as usual, as I am doing for many years now, my monthly transfer to my BKK bank account. After proceeding, I get a few minutes later, a mail, that BKK bank refused the transfer.
Reason should be, that name of account is not correct. Ok, although this has not been a problem for all these these years, I see that on Wise, middle name is missing. I put the middle name, and Wise send it again.
It is now said, the transfer is done, and should be in my account in minutes.
5 minutes later, this time, the whole transfer is definitely cancelled.
I not know what to do here. I need that amount in my account for the end of the month, otherwise, my visa will not be renewed next year. Neither my wife, who is here on my visa.
IMPORT UPDATE
I changed the name, deleted old recipient.
Things got worse. Now it is in account in seconds. No international transfer anymore, although I put for living in Thailand.
It states DEP TRF FR E CH
internetbanking. Could that be because Wise transfer international through another bank?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is facing repeated transfer rejections from their Bangkok Bank account, attributed to discrepancies in their name when sending money via Wise. Previous successful transactions are no longer going through, prompting concern for their upcoming visa renewal which requires funds in their account. Community responses suggest checking the name in the bank statement, trying a different bank, or setting up a new transfer after correcting details.
