That is strange. I'm on my third SIM card since I opened my bank account. The first two numbers are dead but were in my name. I haven't been notified yet. Krungthai bank.

The banks will check their records and phone numbers. They will notify people who's don't match before the 1st April. And might freeze account which don't.

It's because of scammers. They will also check that everyone's Thai SIM card has the same registered name as the account holder.

I've had a krung Thai account for 9 years. Is it possible to use this for retirement visa? I know the agents always use Bangkok bank for new retirement visas.

@Greg *******
That will be a game changer if even the agents can't open them.

Apply from the UK if you want to reduce your chances of being questioned on entry by Immigration.

Alright calm down. But there will be a load of foreigners not aware of the rule change from 1st Jan 24. And will be paying the same amount of tax as previous years. Nothing.

I never spent more than 180 days here in 2024. So I can sit back and relax and see what happens. 😎
