✨ Updated with outcome in comments 23 July ✨

I'm on a Non B and need to get another bank account. My partner and I got our visas with a joint account back in early 2023, but I'd like to get my own account.

I bank with Bangkok Bank but they're really bad at opening a new account! They take weeks to confirm it's open, and months to sort internet banking out.

I've been waiting weeks for them to confirm it's open and know the internet banking side is going to make me want to stick a thousand forks in my eyes, so want to look at other options.

Does anyone have an easier bank they can recommend? I'm in Chiang Rai.

One requirement for any long term VISA seems to be a bank account. I understand this can be difficult, and different banks and branches, depending on location, may impose different requirements. To anyone who has recently opened one, what are some things they are requiring now? Which bank was it? Are there any banks I should avoid completely? Thanks everyone!!

Hi, I regularly transfer money from U.K. using Wise. It goes to my Bangkok SCB account. Wise uses a third party bank Kasikorn who then forward it to SCB. The problem with this is it does not show up on my SCB statement as FTT. Foreign Telegraphic Transfer. I need it to show this in order to meet Long stay Visa requirements. For a marriage Visa I must deposit THB 400,000 for two months before visa application in to my SCB account. It must show that funds have come from overseas. Maybe using Swift bank to bank and accepting lousy exchange rate plus high fees is the only answer ? Any advice welcome.

This is a anything else question.

I have internet banking with SCB on my phone.

Now I got a new phone and got all the apps installed that I need. When opening the SCB App it wants me to switch from wi-fi to mobile data to verify my phone number.

And here is my problem.

I'm not in Thailand at the moment.

If I put my ais SIM in my phone, switch to 📲 data outside Thailand, would I be able to register into the app or would it just block my account?

On the old phone I can use internet banking outside Thailand without any issues.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
