when you use banks that use the SWIFT system your transfers are guided guaranteed…..more bogus advice.

I have had that experience with Wells. They rejected a transfer because the person in the wire department typed in the account information incorrectly. So it was sent back to Wells and then transferred again. If you don’t know what your talking about it’s best not to advise

Today is the 15th, they said arrival by the 20th, relax.i have used wells for many wire transfers. Some take a day, some take 2 weeks. Banks often sit on money to collect interest.

@Nigel ********
while wells is a crappy bank that has been fined many times by the government, if the transfer did not go through they would post the detail online. Your comment not valid.

I can’t comment on that as I have no personal experience with that scenario. A friend of mine who was quite wealthy brought his Thai GF to the states and married her on the fiancé Visa. He got divorced later and tried to bring another GF onto the states without a fiancé Visa and was refused. He had a monthly income of $30,000. She had no skills or property

Unless your GF is a homeowner or has a business in Thailand there is no way other then getting a fiance Visa. And you will need at least $75,000 in cash (in the bank...could be more these days) and you must marry must her in 90 days or....forget it.....The immigrtation officers will know in 1 minute what your GF is about.
