My bank book filled up a couple months ago I went into a local branch not my main branch and got a new Passbook. They looked at the app on my phone signed documents and took my picture as well as looked at my passport. About 3 weeks ago I was locked out for 1 hour and when I checked again my account was open again no issues since. When I got the new passbook I think the service representative took care of everything for me so I would not get locked out. This was not done at my home branch but at a satellite branch in the mall close to my home. It was Bangkok Bank. Thankful for that service representative who helped me out to avoid any big issues such as what is happening now.

I recently had difficulties trying to open the bank account. I was finally successful about 3 weeks ago at a standalone Kasikorn Bank branch. The requirements were my passport and in the passport a Non O Visa my extension of stay for one year and not a copy but the original lease agreement with my owner lots of signing lots of paperwork out with my new account in about 40 minutes. The main thing the bank had told me was a copy of the lease agreement was not acceptable it had to be the original. I did not need anything from immigration

I have WISE, XE, OFX and REMITLY. I find in all respects REMITLY to be better including rates

@Gerg *********
yes I totally agree more reliable and I found the fees and rates a little bit better

@Dominic *************
well said. To boot the guys nothing but a rude and insulting small man. The coward even does not accept private messages from anybody. It's pretty obvious where his support lies in his attitude and words.

@Stuart ********
yeah there is again Stuart. I've seen other posts by this idiot on other topics and his attitude and comments are the same all the time. He has absolutely nothing of use to say and is more interested in rude judgmental comments to people that are seeking information as well as people that are contributing valuable information such as yourself. But one look at the guys profile says it all he fits the profile of the political party he supports. Just another aggressive bully following manipulative Criminal Who is from the bottom of the barrel of depraved in difference to any one or anything other than himself. Thank you for your long-term support in this group and your calm explanation in assisting people in need.🙏

@David ******
I tried XE and I switched to remitly has a much better exchange rate and quicker transfers with various options ATM cards Visa cards and account to account transfers which are the best right now. I also tried wise and found remitly to have even better rates amounts and limits also.

if you go outside of the District of your Bangkok Bank branch there is a levy of about 20 or 25
