 same here. Not the digital part. Thailand runs of physical paperwork. Mountains and mountains of it. But the blue book is only for thais. Yellow book foreigners can be on.

 baha. You obviously dont read any other comments here huh? Banks are all different, yellow book process is all different. Everyone's experiences and requirements are all different... so "thai legislation" has nothing to do with it.

 I haven't either. But this freezing accounts debacle is a bit scary. I actually like Bangkok bank. I've never had issues. But if they freeze my account I have to drive to hua hin, 9 hours, and fix it. And some people are reporting weeks of their account frozen.
