Getting a bank account is tricky.
You need to look presentable and professional.
It is all up to the agent if you will succeed or not.
The agent wants to know you will be a long term customer and will put money into their bank so they can charge fees …it’s a Business after all.
Best seems to be Bangkok Bank.
I told them I’m a frequent visitor, had $500 to deposit and want to buy a condo soon.
This was the ticket.
I had to buy an insurance policy for about $100 …..I think it’s a side hustle for them.
How much time should I allow for transferring from international to domestic flights at BKK airport?
