you don't represent every body and you must not read on her daily people having more problems trying to open bank account. And you must not have read the bangkok Post about bangkok bang to seize money to follow immigration and visa required amounts. Glad you had no problem so I quess all the other people posting daily are lying. I guess your just so special.

best advice is for people to switch bank if they have bangkok bank. They have said they may freeze access of fall below tje requirements. Sucks to have bank that wants to play immigration and visa enforcement now.

@Darren ******
your so full of shit . 60 day to 30 day was going to be a policy change. It's not a visa idiot. Bangkok bank new change to immigration. Policy. Read bangkok Post and keep up idiot. 60 day exemption is not a visa as the op asked about. Its funny you live in Vietnam. Your a real piece

@Darren ******
who said anything about visa, question was about reducing 60 back to 30 for exemption entry. Try reading and maybe keep up to date with policies from bangkok post

@Darren ******
numbers have been posted recently about the shift and lost of tourism to Vietnam from Thailand. Its public record.

So I question people that have bangkok bank and use agency every year is screwed now. Anybody run into this problem yet for renewal
Matthew *********
@Tsering ********
they already said they won't change it for another year. Their numbers are to low to even consider it. But they find other policies to push people to Vietnam

the blame the Chinese but make all farangs suffer for it. Its never safe to keep money in thai bank anymore. Bangkok bank sent a statement out last week that they have the right to freeze access if you don't follow visa requirements. So now banks are immigration enforcement. Total bullshit
