I have GBP account with UOB Bank. I can transfer GBP in THB or can transfer back home to UK or any country using Internet Log in. I do not use any application. If any other currency like USD comes they will buy conver and deposit in GBP. So one can open USD or Euro Account if required but not multi currency. No debit card.

I have been in Thailand for 10 years now and have excellent life although I go to UK every year for few weeks. Last year I went back in mid pendemic and decided to stay 6 months renting one bed furnished apartment in Nottingham in good area. My average monthly expense was around £2000 per month including apartment rent of £700, had 6 month contract with car lease (brand new car) costing £400 per month plus fuel. Used to eat out about 2 or three times a week mainly in pub early evening offers. This was real test for me as since I came back have suffered heart attack and had pnomonia staying in Bangkok Hospital Pattaya for 11 nights to recover. Dont have health insurance, had to pay -1st time in hospital like this for long stay but still feel Pattaya is much better place to live n enjoy life as long as you can move about. Once I will need help to move or for living do not know what to do ? I have been living alone and is 71 Age.

Am looking to open foreign currency GBP/Australian Dollar accounts (savings or deposit) in Thailand. However fees for outward transfer puts me off - saw Bank charging 0.5% with no maximum to transfer out which means losing some original capital brought in since they do not pay much interest. Any suggestions advice please. Name of Bank etc. Looked at Singapore but difficult to open ? Any help advice will be apricated. Thanking in advance. AM from UK, British National living in Thailand most of the year and have Thai Tax Number.
