Mine was 18 working days… I called the main branch on the 18th day. They called the branch that I opened up at in Hua Hin and they told me that a six month lease was not good enough, even though that was my second lease the first one being one year next one being only six months because I wanna upgrade and move into a bigger home after the six months… so I had my landlord make a new lease of one year. I submitted to Bangkok bank the next day and they open up my account in one hour…
Mine was finally released after the 22nd working day… they eventually wanted a one year lease instead of a six month lease, even though mine was a renewal from a one year lease… when I finally gave them that yesterday they released my account in one hour at the original bank that I started it at…
Ship to someone 1st if you have that option… double shipping is still cheaper than taxes… just shipped 36lbs for my “birthday “, take everything out of the wrappers and boxes and you might not get taxed… we even included a bday card… Wright happy birthday on the box also… just a suggestion… worked for me… good luck 🍀
