Your situation isn't different. Having a wife means nothing to the bank unless you're on a marriage visa. Otherwise you're just another foreigner on DTV.

have her go with you to the bank where she has a Thai bank account. Have her chat with the bank manager kindly requesting they open a bank account for you. You might need a Certificate of Residence obtained from your local Thai Immigration office.Ian **********
I opened my first bank account using my Thai wife as a referee and was on a visa-exempt, but Bangkok Bank told me I cannot do that now.
