actually about a month ago I was restricted by the intermediary Bank between the transfer application and the receiving Bank to 50,000 per transfer

morning Max. Banking is the primary criteria for getting a Visa. I think it is a very valid and suitable question to ask in this group as it does relate to visas. Cheers

True 20BhT @ ATM machine for same bank different province

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.

yeah they could at least recommend a good lint trap

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

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.
