I have friends that own bars and are looking to get out of them as quickly as possible..

Employees stealing money, customers that don't want to pay their bills..

Ask anyone that's been here for a long period of time and they will tell you this is very bad idea.

I have two friends that were denied on their second exemption entry.

Another one that was warned that he would not be allowed in again after.

They want you to pony up and get a real Visa

Bank of America will wire to a thai bank account for free, and since they have a branch in Bangkok they can send Thai baht directly.

PayPal business held $18,000 of my money that I was wiring from one account with my name on it to another account with my name on it.

They don't have to give you a reason either.

180 days my money was on hold . 181 they gave me my money back.

I'm highly against third parties after dealing with that 😂

I've been blocked by wise , western union and MoneyGram

Third party senders don't have to give you a reason why the account is closed..

If you try and send money too frequently they'll close it. And the limits that they say they have are total b*******..

You start going over a few thousand dollars a month they'll ask for receipts, contracts and bank statements to show the money is going..

Bank wires take about 2 days but it's the most safe method of doing it. And it's the most reliable.

Bank of America Platinum check card , or it may be with any of their accounts.. the wiring process is so simple it's the best option

Before we got our business related visas. We had Thailand privilege.

Pay and stay, almost no requirements other than money.

The new bronze Visa is relatively cheap, and offers you more access than the DTV, 5 year's for around $19,000 if you break it down yearly is not bad

some areas of Bangkok turn into a swimming pool during the rainy season because they built too much without proper infrastructure for drainage

but the rain is not apocalyptic by any means.. but keep the myth alive!! we like our cheap hotels 🤣
