I sent 13.3 Million using Dmoney in one transaction from the sale of a Condo in 2020 , back then they gave me 39 baht to GBP. They normally have a restriction of 800,000 per day but I contacted there head office by email and they requested some documents such as : Sales contract Land office tax receipt. For smaller amounts like 1 to 1.5 Million I have just sent from my phone in one transaction using either the SCB app or the Dmoney app , no paperwork required. I found the SCB just as competitive as Dmoney with rates of exchange and fees and the SCB daily limit is higher at 1.5 Million per day and the fee was if I recall 250. I have never been charged anything at the UK end for incoming funds.

I had to do this last week , my new passport arrived last Thursday week , my retirement extension expires on March 1st. So last Friday week I went to immigration first and they swapped my Visa over and extension to March 1st 2023 over to my new passport , this took 15 minutes. Then last Monday I went to the bank to first update my new passport , then I got the bank guarantee letter to show I had over 800,000 in the bank. Then copied every page of my bank book , obtained and printed a 12 month statement from my banking app. Then went to immigration last Monday afternoon with my new passport and bank letter ect and they did my retirement extension early within 45 days. It took less than 10 minutes picked my passport up on Tuesday with extension to March 1st 2024 .

Can you get me her phone number

Why give the guy the worst possible information ? , if when hes 50 and he obtained the Retirement Visa from.his own embassy he would be issued with a "Non OA" . Then he would be have yo obtain the ridiculous insurance every year , much better for him to obtain his retirement Visa in Thailand were he would then be in a "Non O"

Floating lanterns and fireworks seized on Patong Beach
Brick Top replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
There not trying very hard to catch them , the fireworks have been going off every night for the past 4 months from 8 pm continually until 4 am. Here is the guy selling them every night with the number plate removed from his old Honda Click. The Patong beach police station at the end of Bangla rd is in full view of of everything. They are again illegal fireworks going off again tonight right in front of my place , very loud and annoying everybody -
Absolutely correct and essential to give that last reason for the transfer " funds for long term stay in Thailand" if you fail to click on that reason for transfer it will show up as a Domestic Transfer on your bank statement and imagration will not accept it as they will suspect you have just transferred it from another Thai bank which is what many foreigners were doing before imigration stipulated it must show as an FET or international transfer.

It will be fine , to put things into prospective , I have two Samsung smart TVs. I have android boxs connected to both of them , I never use the smart TVs , as i find the android boxs are much faster and better than the smart TVs. As long as you use a wireless mouse with them .
