@John *******

Checked and doubled check tried to speak with Revolt via their online chat they just say no issues their end must be receiving bank🤷‍♀️ but as said Wise NP works ever time.

never had any success with Revolut transferring Bhat to a non-revolut account i.e Thai bank account not sure what i am doing wrong but every time it fails and i have to wait 19 days for money back and then they deduct transfer fees only a few bhat but still annoying. Wise on the other hand is instant within minutes same bank same information so no idea why the difference. 🤷‍♀️

Many thanks all for the helpful replies. Will probably start with the METV and see how it goes then switch to a retirement visa if i want something more permanent. I have private UK pensions so will be subject to UK tax on them plus state pension. Not actually sure what my monthly income or tax bill will be yet until

i retire and know my tax level. My plan atm is to keep a residence in the UK and have summer in the UK, which is lovely even though we moan about the weather😂then off to Thailand from Nov till April. Hopefully i can make it work.

@Simon ******

Thanks how much was the agents fee for the initial Retirement visa?

@Christian *********

@Allan ********

@Luit ****************
