I have the same problem, use your new phone as a WiFi hot-spot, connect your old phone and use the app like that till you can get back and sort it out with your bank, hope this helps.

I never meant only UK bank, but I showed my UK bank statement as I live in the UK like the OP, but don't have to have Thai bank account with 0 bht in

@Jackie ********

no medical certificate either, was just out of a triple bypass op.

not for the o visa over 50 I got one last year, still valid now, insurance not required. No police check. Just flights, bank statement and I honestly can't remember what else I had to send but for the insurance part I just wrote N/A on a piece of paper and photographed it and uploaded it in the insurance section, police check I think is for the OA.

But would have to border bounce every 90 days

Non O multiple entry from UK, e visa, based on being over 50,£150 a year, would be your best option. Only have to show 10 k I think in a UK bank.

Phayatai hospital sriracha was half the price of Bangkok hospital. 5 years ago mind, full cancer screening. Mri on head and torso, blood tests and ultrasound scan. bht. Only went to enquire and came out 3 hrs later all done. Report in English and a talk with a doctor explaining findings. Excellent service at the time.
