What are the advantages of having a Thai bank account except from QR Payments? I usually pay or withdraw by european credit card or exchange cash and never felt missing a Thai credit card. I dont't get it yet.

I see lots of questions about Thai banks. I have been married to my Thai wife for 50+ years. She has a Thai passport and ID card and an American passport, drivers license etc. we live in the USA 🇺🇸.

we are fixing to go to Thailand 🇹🇭 again in January. I want her to open a bank account and add me on the account like here in the USA 🇺🇸.

Is that doable? Also which banks in Bangkok are more user friendly and have less fees?

TIA

Hi DTV squad. Just wanted to ask for recommended service agents to help open a joint Thai account (my wife and I). We both got our DTV and are British. One service agent quoted me 15,000 baht a person and through a Pattaya branch. Seems very expensive! If anyone has had a positive and reasonably priced experience would be grateful to be pointed in the right way. Thank you in advance and apologies if this has posted already!
