Bangkok bank are shite. They froze my account said I needed yellow book. ( too much hassle) opened a Krungthai account , passport showing visa, Tm30 and Thai & Uk driving licence, sorted. Closed the account at Bangkok, they said I should not do that as I would need to have account for future visa , after I got the cash out. I showed them my Krungthai account , I said I’m now with a decent bank and walked out. ( my Roi-et branch of Bangkok were clueless as to what was required ,
