thanks, good tips

I'd prefer to have the Visa first before I book flights/accommodation.

They do say in the application don't apply more than 3 months prior to travelling.

@Wi**

this is on the e-visa site?

Yep, they have set the bar far too high IMO. Even the Wealthy Pensioners class of Visa is set way too high, plus they've pegged the financial requirements to the US Dollar, WHY!

I'd say Wise off to the top of my head

I was going to use Revolut to do a crypto buy (looking for alternative methods to buy crypto), couldn't do said crypto buy (can't recall why), tried to transfer out my money and had all sorts of issues needing me to contact support. Took me two days to prove myself so I could get my own money back! I raised a complaint with the financial regulator in my country. Got an admission from Revolut that their support people did the wrong thing and received an apology and a small compensation payout, when I say small <$100AU. When I raised the complaint, all I said was I wanted access and withdraw MY funds and that's all, and that the support people were continuously asking me to acknowledge some sort of disclaimer which I did about a dozen times and their response was "we haven't received it" over and over again. That was the first and last time I used, and will ever use Revolut!

Steer clear of Revolut, I've used them once with terrible experience. Will never use them again!

@Dar***

question on the 65k baht / month. That needs to be deposited into your Thai bank account? Or an overseas account meets the criteria? I'm from AU, so the letter from Embassy isn't an option.

I'm using Proton Mail email address, I have issues with Google based services now days! I'll try gmail as a last resort. Can you, once registered update (change) your registered email address?

@Ph**

yep
