Yet a nother online banking question...

I see most peoplentalk aboit and recommend 'Wise'. Does anyone have any experience with the german run 'N26'? Just looking for people who know it and find out what they think about it -would you recommend it or not?

Are Taipei or HCMC accepting Wise accounts in lieu of bank statement?

Does anyone know if the Taipei consulate accepts Wise for bank statements?

Further to my post 3 days ago referring to the maximum GBP, I could transfer from the UK to Kasikorn Thailand.

I e mailed Kasikorn, and they replied stating that they do not normally have a maximum.

Adding it depends on the sender's bank, maximum for transfers.

I'm sure this question has been asked before: what's the best option to send money from my Thai bank to my US bank? I've tried connecting them bank to bank and it never seems to go through. 🤔is it best to just use something like western union?

I will be in Bangkok today arriving at Central Pinklao bus station and leaving BKK to Narita Japan airport. I would like to get some US currency preferably 100 dollar notes from ATM or BKK super rich or the like using a credit card. Is this possible and any suggestions about where is appreciated. I looked at this site and googled many other sites but did not get concrete information so posting here. Thanks!

Hi, not visa related.

My bank has informed me that it will close my account when I move to Thailand (won't allow a current account if I no longer live in the UK, I can have an international account with £100,000 deposit and charge £7 a month to use it!)

I have looked around Google, but now my head hurts! 😳😫🤣

Any advice in keeping a UK account while living in Thailand will be much appreciated 👍

(Edit included)

I haven't told my bank, it's information I read on their site, technically I will have a uk address, my son is buying my share of the house and living in it.

Today i talked to an agent to open a Thai bank account but he want my US social security number to open a Thai bank account. Is that the rules to open a bank account?

The Thai baht has vanished from my Wise list of countries to exchange and send. It’s been 48 hours. The was an APP update but heard nothing from Wise. Anyone got or had a similar issue? Been using them for over a year now.

Question for those receiving social security from the United States in Thailand Do you maintain a US address of record? Direct deposit to US Bank and then transfer to Thai bank? Trying to get things in order for my move in about 2 yrs.
