You don't get it. The government has passed the hot potato to the banks through an emergency decree, making them responsible for their customers' actions. Banks can't rely on the DTV, as it's a visa that almost anyone can obtain. It doesn't offer the same guarantees as other immigrant visas, which are subject to much stricter scrutiny. As a result, banks will request as many documents as possible to clear individuals.

I've been laughed at for trying to warn people from an anonymous account. The primary reaction is to dismiss anything written anonymously. Delightful 😂 They can now get ready to be scrutinised by immigration. 😜

Well probably because the scammers are not attending their classes and use them as an alibi... That's the easiest way to stay in Thailand for the long-term now. The government has recently made banks responsible in case of illegal activities.

@Jordan ****

That's not the bank, that's immigration. People are holding a visa for a purpose. Immigration is already conducting checks for other visas at borders and in the country.

Wow, it seems plenty of people will need to get ready for another surprise 😂. As if no one have warned them... 😝

"Visa-Mill Schools May Lead to Account Closures

Thai banks are blacklisting Muay Thai and cooking schools suspected of operating as “visa mills.”

Our sources confirm that banks are now cooperating with Thai authorities to crack down on these institutions. If your DTV visa is linked to one of these schools, your bank account may be closed, and immigration officers may begin screening your visa history more closely. Schools that offer low-cost visa packages without legitimate training are under particular scrutiny."
