I have successfully transferred funds by Wise to my Krungthai account from Australia.Is it possible to send funds back from that a/c back to Australian account via wise?

Two topics.

1) this is a follow up from my marriage visa renewal where I went from seasoned account balance to income based verification. The bank REFUSED to give me the report (it's been a month, I forget the name) saying the source of the funds was overseas. The branch in my town admitted (which was a surprise) they had no idea and had never done it and the branch where I opened the account told the local guy to fuck off. I brought some other report that just showed the deposits and it was accepted. So good news, but also irritating.

2) has anyone here ever visited the SEZ in Laos across from Sop Ruak? It doesn't seem like the casinos have websites, or maybe it's just the virtue signalling layer of Google hiding them.

Bangkok Bank appears to be the problem all round. This from Wise

A few questions for those with DTV and Bangkok bank accounts

1. Do Bangkok bank notify you? Message? Email?

When we try to make any mobile banking transactions it now says "recipient invalid" (they were fine before), so we wonder if that means they have cancelled our account?

2. If we are cancelled, do we have to visit the branch where we setup the account?

Thanks for your help

I went to jomtien immigration today to ask about the deposits coding issues. Spoke to the officer at window 8. He basically said bangkok bank isnt entirely cooperative with immigration anymore. He said quote. Kasikorn better. Im going tomorrow to the Kasikorn international desk on Pattaya klang to request a credit advice letter on my September transfer, was quoted 200 baht. does kasikorn code their incoming wise transfers as international? I will inquire about that before opening a new account.

Regarding the wise transfers to bkk bank now coded as something other than the previous FTT code. I downloaded the wise invoice pdf which clearly shows it was as n international transfer. However i think is best to start doing wise as a swift transfer to avoid any confusion. Comments?

My Wise transfer deposits (using Funds for Long Term Stay method) from Canada to Kasikorn Bank show this in my bank statement......

"Trade Finance Deposit

Trade Finance

Trade Ref no. IR25083000037050"

Does this indicate International deposit ??

Something new! Bangkok bank.

Very stressful, because I have to arrange this for my retirement visa, monthly method.

With all alarming news, about BKK bank freezing accounts, I decided to do the transfer, early in the month, if something goes wrong, I can still find a solution.

Today I send, as usual, as I am doing for many years now, my monthly transfer to my BKK bank account. After proceeding, I get a few minutes later, a mail, that BKK bank refused the transfer.

Reason should be, that name of account is not correct. Ok, although this has not been a problem for all these these years, I see that on Wise, middle name is missing. I put the middle name, and Wise send it again.

It is now said, the transfer is done, and should be in my account in minutes.

5 minutes later, this time, the whole transfer is definitely cancelled.

I not know what to do here. I need that amount in my account for the end of the month, otherwise, my visa will not be renewed next year. Neither my wife, who is here on my visa.

IMPORT UPDATE

I changed the name, deleted old recipient.

Things got worse. Now it is in account in seconds. No international transfer anymore, although I put for living in Thailand.

It states DEP TRF FR E CH

internetbanking. Could that be because Wise transfer international through another bank?

Hello …I’m on my 2 nd year of my retirement visa here which gets renewed once a year …is there any way to change it into a yearly visa …the goal is to not have to keep 800 k in an account … I know that 400k can be withdrawn from that account and put back in 2 months prior to renewal and then take it back out 3 months after renewal but that system is getting old and worn … don’t ask why not just leave 800 k in it year round ..I have better things to do with it …thanks for any potential solid advice on options …

Well my day became crap. Trying to transfers the fund online. They send you a code.problem being its being sent to your British mobile because your in thailand they don't change the code. So feeling a little stressed
