Craig Richards Cannot open a BB account while in the US. You must go to a Thai branch in Thailand and they will open a deposit account US)and a branch account.
Colin Biggar My statement and passbook show only deposits and withdrawals plus the minor stuff. Statement is less than two pages. That is via a deposit account.
Matthew Plymale if your address is in the US, u will recieve it the way u are now receiving it. If your address is in Thailand u will recieve it on the 3rd. Read the handbook for US Xpats. Also, if your address is in the US u are bucking the system as u do not have to do the proof of life form. Cheating the system.
Richard Allen Jones I know that. If you reside in Thailand u must give them your address. Otherwise u are cheating. I get a proof of life form each year to pretty much let them know that I am alive.
