When you get to the "Payment purpose" question on your Wise transfer request, choose "Funds for long term stay in Thailand".

 

Wise are aware of the issue and created this option specifically to help us.

I do this already but Bangkok Bank statement printouts and bank books do not show this information. They just say 'Transfer'

My first few minimum monthly 65,000 baht transfers using Wise were listed as 'international transfer' on my Bangkok bank statements, but then sometimes they were listed as only 'transfers'. So even though they came via Wise from my UK bank they were not considered valid as proof of my monthly transfer when I wanted to renew my retirement visa. I was told that this was probably because Wise may have transferred the money from their Thailand based bank instead of their UK one. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it something to do with Bangkok Bank? And have you found a way around this crazy problem? Thanks. 

In every example you have quoted there is an additional requirement: 

2. A certified letter of income from your Embassy

As I understand it, Embassies are longer willing to issue these letters. So has this now changed?
