Bank account with TTB

After reports in this group that TTB accepts the DTV for opening bank accounts, I visited the Central Festival Pattaya branch. And they refuse to even consider opening an account without a work permit.

Has anyone opened a bank account with them recently? If so, which branch? I don't mind going to Bangkok or another nearby city to open an account.

TIA

Regarding Bank Accounts (as well as other non-DTV) items TikTok has just posted this. I am posting this in DTV about the new banking regulatory requirements only.

They are very well connected and have been around a long time.

Does the 500,000 baht have to be in one single account or can it be spread across a couple of accounts all in my name?

I am currently holding ed visa and will be switching to dtv. I opened a bank account in Krungthai bank with the letter from current school. Will the bank account be still usable for long term even after switching to dtv?

Do i need to update the visa in bank? Will the bank possibly approve for it?

Hello everyone, I have a question for DTV holders. How do you guys pay in Thailand ? As you get your salary from an outside country. WISE/REVOLUT to your thai bank (if you have the chance to have one) ? Get cash from ATM ? Please help

Could you please give me some advice, Are there any banks in BKK open accounts for foreigners holding a DTV Visa?

Quick question, can I show 2 accounts with money adding upto 500,000 baht from the uk, say £6000 in each account? I don't keep more than £10000 in any one account....Thankyou

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.

What's the best agent in pattaya to open bank accounts for us, DTV holders?

Please recommend only the agents which are not discriminatory. I'm from a poor country. Thanks 🙏🙏

Hello there! Plan on retiring very soon in Thailand. Just getting started on medical insurance expenses and bank accounts before making my final decision. Thanks for having me! 🙏
