Nope. Not yet at least. Default 50k฿ possible to change to 200k฿ max.

That's true. Long time ago, when there was no app for the Kasikorn bank but only 'internet browser access', I asked for this in a rather big branch in Bangkok. They really did not understand what I meant. After looking on their internet page, they called it 'Cyber banking'. When I went back to that branch and said 'Cyber banking', everybody had the 'aha moment' and it was done in 20 minutes, ha ha.

I think also you need a TM86 or TM87 form. Not the regular TM7 for a year extension. And indeed NO online application, just go to the imm. where you filed y'r TM30. Don't know if Samui accept 'in-country' non imm. O visa.

Had same problem last month. Wise 'said': There’s a problem with your transfer IDxxxx.

The name we had for your recipient THB account appears to be wrong. Because of that, your money was sent back to us.

Try to delete y'r account from the bangkok bank within Wise and add it with exact name('s) from y'r bankbook or the name('s) without last name. After 3 different 'name attempts', it worked again. This happened also after more than 7 years with no problems. Think because they are 'managing' their software/interfaces 🤷‍♂️

If it still not works (and the account is not blocked/suspended or so) try to delete the bangkok recipent in Wise an add it again with same name as on the bank book or also one time without last name 🤷‍♂️. I also did 3 times 'trial and error' before it worked. I my case I only tested it with 100€ (Dutch).

What I have read as a tip in another group, is to transfer 400k฿ to the new bank account first and keep a bit more than 400k฿ on the current account (Which 3 months after getting the year extension, is the minimum to keep). Then, a bit more than 2 months before the next year extension, put the next 400k฿ to the new bank account, so it's 800k฿ on te new account 2 months before for the new year extension.

Well, I only looked at it now, and indeed in the app it says 'DEP TRF FR E-CH'. I also have the 'browser link' and also there it's different as you see on my picture 🤷‍♂️.

Also a strang thing happened with me last 28th of august. Had no problems for the last 7 years and this time a message from Wise came back:

'The name we had for your recipient THB account appears to be wrong. Because of that, your money was sent back to us.

Tried again but same result. To make a long story short: I removed the recipent (which was the bank account from the Bangkok bank of myself) and added it again with my name without last name. Then it went through very quick indeed as if I had chosen 'other' as a reason.

It seems, with all the 'Bangkok bank troubles' I read, that they are working/changing their software/interfaces.

Lets see what happens next month.

I remember reading in the Q&A group (Tod Daniels) that imm. only count the 12 months deposits from the start of your year extension. 🤷‍♂️ (I still can have an income statement from my Embassy, so not sure)
