There is a Bangkok bank in London. Also in HK & probably a few more spread around the globe but I think it maybe like HSBC the Thai version & U.K. version cant link for PV accounts.. Probably becasue the Thai version is corporate banking only.
Sire it can be done. But usually if they know you have a child and wife they don’t like you coming in of VE of TV It happened to me in BKK once a while back. At that time I was coming back and forth a lot from Nepal so was using the TR exemptions system to visit my wife and kids. The moment I mentioned wife and kid he wrote in my PP above the current stamp a note to the effect I need to apply for. Non O which I had been on before. 👍
I think that’s the reason he’s been denied. Misuse of his current visa. He hasn’t applied for the correct visa. If he wanted an extension his wife shouldn’t have called and they shouldn’t have mentioned the child.
A few years back I bought a PlayStation for a relative here from the U.K. sent it over was stuck in customs for ages and then got whacked with an outrageous duty cost on it.
