be advised not to use bangkok bank. They are not farang friendly. You won't get the necessary documents from them

@Robin ******
they didnt even ask me for one. The banker saw my tm47 in passport and used it. Serves the same purpose she said. That's how all banks should work. Just common sense. KBANK RULES

it's ashamed because there isn't a national standard for all offices like a civilised nation like Japan or Korea. Thailand wants to be seen as their level but it will never happen

@Clint ********
you sound like a traveler which what retired people should be doing.

Well that was the most honest statement about the situation. Who nreally knows and why didnt they just start on the new calendar year. Makes no sense to start to start at the beginning of high season. I think the beat answer for people nervous is to pay for fast tracking. Is there any advocate groups that ever talk to policy makers.

I live in issan. I am sure my branch wouldn't be any help. But overall I hear only good things from most of the branches

go to kbank they are the most farang friendly in my opinion. I closed my bangkok bank and opened a new with kbank. Very little paperwork. They didnt ask for residence certificate. They used my tm47 in my passport. They didnt make me go to phone carrier to get documents to verify phone acct. They loaded their app on my phone and face recognition. In and out. The experience was so different from bangkok bank. Many others have posted recently how easy it was using kbank

there is no new law on limiting entries . It is clearly stated crack does on extension and border run. Nothing more or less. There is mo such law as 2 entries for visa exemption. If you believe it so much post the law. You can't because it doesn't exist
