Any USA citizen successfully open a TTB bank account. They are telling me that as an American I need a Thai salary (no other nationalities are subject to this requirement). If yes, please advise on branch, etc

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

So it seems some TTB branches in Bangkok can open accounts for DTV holders, particularly DTV holders who work remotely! I can't confirm for the other category of DTV. They showed me a list of 4 items required, of which I was missing just one, which I've attached here. The other items are

1. Passport + DTV stamp inside

2. other ID from your country (license or ID card)

3. DTV proof like letter from employer/ employment contract/

4. The attached image - that's what I didn't have. What is that? It's related to residence though. They didn't care about my TM30.
