fair comment it’s certainly been said many times over my last 2.5 years here so just thought it could be a consideration if nothing else

I will add to this for the original poster

Sometimes when you got to a bank here in Thailand they want you to go to the branch where the account was opened to do anything. Ie get a new card or update bank book (as examples) This would be my only concern opening at a branch out of the country.

Anonymous participant 198 there’s been some insane figures thrown around getting an agent to do it though. I’ve heard 15 and 20k being almost the norm if on dtv…

no it’s a company where you book a ticket to satisfy the airline but it’s not a real ticket. But should they ask for it, it will work for that purpose.

Saves you booking a flight that’s expensive and you’ll likely not use.

you could use a vpn it’s not like you’re lying you will be flying in from England and if you have your flight booked already then that proof should be ample.
