Which banks in Thailand still allow foreigners with DTV visas to open bank accounts?

Dana *******

what about those who opened on a long term visa long time ago, their sim matches the ID of the account, and the person suddenly needs to go back home for family reasons and loses his Non-O. Do the bank block the account ?

They are not closing accounts, provided your SIM card's name matches your account name. I opened mine at Bangkok Bank around 10 years ago, funds were always transfered from my Swiss account. Clean clear...

Can foreigners open a bank account in Pattaya with a 90-day visa?

Dana *******

USEFUL INFOS : regarding Name / Phone number : "Foreigners are required to present their passport when purchasing a True Mobile pre-paid SIM card in Thailand. This is because Thai regulations mandate that all SIM cards must be registered with the user's identification details, and for foreigners, a passport serves as the primary form of ID"

Does the bank send you an information about this (closing on 1.4.25) ? I have not received anything. Neither by email, nor on the Bangkok Bank Apps.
