Not correct. Facial recognition works at KBank for foreigners as well as long as you registered for it via a visit to you branch. They will take at least 2 photos.
Both KBank and Bangkok Bank have implemented facial recognition for foreigners. If banking with KBank a visit to your branch is necessary. At Bangkok Bank verification via facial recognition suddenly popped up when I transferred >50k to my KBank account.
Nonsense,there are more expats in Chonburi.The numbers sometime mentioned online about expats in Phuket is just bogus.There are three immigration offices in Chonburi province. How many do you have in Phuket?
Please explain to me how you don't know your address? If you're staying in Thailand long term,having a bank account,buying stuff online, register for this and that,then you can't always copy and paste your address in Thai. Have you tried to paste your address in Google translate?
