Hey all,

Does anyone know a place where i can still open a bank account on visa exemption? Preferably Nonthaburi, Bangkok or Pattaya. Agent is also cool

Thanks!

Hi lovely group I have a question:

If I applied 90 days retirement visa in the UK, can I open bank account in Thailand from the UK?

If yes how to do it?

If not can I do it straight away when I arrive to Thailand?

Anyone knows how to open a bank account in Chiang Mai on DTV visa?

I would like to open bank account in bangkok or pattaya.

I need help, plz

And usually how much? About

If you’re on a DTV visa and struggling to open a bank account, I’ve just found something that works: DEEPPOCKET.

I signed up yesterday and got approved this afternoon. You can top up at Big C, Tesco Lotus, or even bank branches by following the app instructions. I tested it out by having a friend send me 500 baht via QR scan, and so far, no issues.

It’s only been a day, but it’s already making things easier. At least I don’t have to carry so much cash around anymore. I’ll be using this until the banks decide what to do about DTV visa holders.

Hi , been quoted 80k BHT by legal firm to open a Thai bank account .. it’s this a fair and reasonable price ? Any guidance would be grateful 🙏

Can someone recommend an agent to assist with opening a bank account in Bangkok. Thanks!

Visited three banks today in Chiang Mai—Bangkok Bank, KBank, and SCB. All of them politely declined to open an account with a DTV visa.

Any recommendations for an agent in Pattaya to help open a bank account ? Thanks

I believe many members in this group use and advocate for Revolut?

This is a pretty good story of how security goes wrong. Certainly the victim could have done more to protect themselves but it sounds like Revolut did next to nothing to protect it's customers.

Most certainly any financial service provider should have some security with new accounts and the number of transactions/payments within a period of time.

They save you money because they reduce expenses... Security is apparently one of those expenses
