Topping up money doesn't automatically give you data.

You have to buy a package in the app.

So select a package you want, top up that amount (+7 VAT) and then buy the package.

it's your responsibility to know when you have to do it. Just count 90 days from your entry stamp.

It's always the latest date you entered the country. Always

You can't pay that bill with BKK bank. It's literally the only bank that doesn't let you pay PEA bills.

Take your bill to any 7-eleven or tops daily and pay there. Or ask someone with another bank to pay it for you.

Ger Wise Remitly and Revolut

Try making a transfer and compare the prices and exchange rates.

Wise actually gives you a list of other services before you transfer, so you can see if there are cheaper options. They don't hide it if they're not the cheapest ones.

thanks for sharing! Did you parents support you financially until you graduated from your university? Or did you have to work while studying?

I've talked to SCB about this and they basically refuse to let you open a bank account without a work permit because "the head office said so".

I talked to their customer support yesterday, while at the bank branch and they asked me to bring every document I used to apply for my DTV and a resident certificate to see if "maybe" the bank will let me open an account.

It's easier to buy a living tiger in this country, than it is to open a bank account.
