A warning to anyone using Wise or thinking of Wise. Their wonderful AI assistant just told me a flat out lie to get me to deposit money. My account was restricted about a week ago. They held my money and did not transmit in. Then they returned it. So today I go to wise to transfer about 85k baht. I see no notice of restriction. So to double check I open chat and ask is my account restricted. No says the AI assitant, I have checked and there is no restriction. So I do the transfer. Then it flashes up your account is restricted. They have taken the money out of the bank but not sending it. So I ask to speak to a human. Their response, hard luck. The AI assistant got it wrong we can not tell you how long we will hold your money or when we will send it on. In the space of a week thats nearly 200000 baht they have grabbed. Think how many others they are doing it to and earning interest on short term deposits. I suggest everybody switches to Remitly or something else. You simply cannot trust Wise anymore. Even a request to find out how long a restriction lasts is met with a shrug.....its another team, might be ten days, might be weeks.
Has anyone had issues with money transfers ? I sent money to my GF and she is getting a fee charged by Bangkok bank for receiving a wire transfer into her account. It is concerning have a wire transfer fee when I send and when when she receives. Any advise is appreciated.
65k baht deposit…… for the people using this method instead of the 800k baht. How are you transferring the 65k per month? I have heard if I use Wise, the ACH may not be accepted as proof the funds came from outside of Thailand. Are you using wire transfers every month?
Not sure if it's right place to ask before I go to bank but is there an easy way to transfer funds from Australian bank account to my K bank account please?
