I am considering switching my bank from Bangkok Bank to Kasikorn Bank.
I usually use WISE to transfer around 3000 USD per transaction.
How long does this amount usually takes to arrive in Kasikorn Bank? -

First time I am a bit nervous as the transfer does not arrive as promised at Bangkok Bank.
Should have credited shortly after 2 PM.
The WISE website shows a strange "We are unable to give you an update at the moment." message and the transfer is still in "Sent" status.
Also have not got the usual email updates about the transfer.
Mine was sent last Friday and I just received it today at 2pm.

It changed by itself. I haven't contact the support or called the bank. It's over 50k . Thought that might be the problem. But Bangkok Bank don't have that limit. So I came over to this post and knew I'm not the only person with that issue. I will give an update when I have it in my Bank Account
Yes anytghing over 50k and it get's regulated to the 2pm processing time. I am considering switching to Kasikorn bank, I heard that even with high amounts such as 120k it still arrives instantly.

Thanks
Did this change by itself? or have you contacted them already which might have triggered it.

No.
I did nothing other than email Wise yesterday and explain my problem.
They did the re-process themselves.
I will wait and see if it turns up this afternoon.
Can you kindly share the email you used for contacting, if my money doesn't show up today at 2pm I'll contact them.

Really annoying
Did your status in WISE change? or is it still the same? It should have changed by it self now.

This is the response from Wise that I received last night. I checked with BBK this morning about 06:15 but the transfer was not there yet.

quote " Hello William,
Thanks for getting in touch!
I checked your transfer and see that we sent the money from our end, but the money was returned to us due to a technical issue with the recipient's bank.
Our team is already working on it, once that's done we'll process the transfer and let you know via email.
I hope that helps. Just let me know if you have any other questions — or you can check out our Help Centre."
Thank you very much for sharing. But I don't get it. So they said the money was returned? did this mean you had to redo the transfer again yourself? or the money will be processed by them again without you having todo anything?

I made a transfer last night from Wise account to my BB account - I don't have on line banking & just assumed it was there today ??
I didn't check today but after reading this, I'll go & check my account in the next 30 minutes to see if it's there or not
Was it there?

Thank you for your advice but I have been using Wise and BBK since 2019 and I have made it work since then.
I know that when I do the transfer on a Friday evening Thai time it should be in my BBK account just after 2pm on Monday if the Monday is not a Thai bank holiday
I can also confirm that my experience has been consistent with this over the past two years. I have made several transfers each month during this time. Whenever I send it on a Friday, like clockwork, 2pm Monday it shows up in my Bangkok Bank account.

Not yet.
I have just sent them an email and to expect a reply in about 24 hours.
Thank you for sharing. I have yet to contact WISE support because I first spoke with Bangkok Bank about the issue. If you receive any updates from WISE support, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share them.
I usually make large transfers, which is why they are never processed instantly by Bangkok Bank and are limited to the 2 PM processing time each day.- 1

I don't think it is just his money, but everybody's money who was due payment today. And that could amount to many thousands of pounds.
Thank you very much for sharing. Yes, this is exactly my situation. I have also called Bangkok Bank, but they said everything is normal on their end.
Apparently, this has to do with WISE itself. Have you gotten in touch with WISE support yet?- 1

Wow really? Like somebody grabbed your money? Or they sent it to Taiwan instead of Thailand? Sure lets make a big deal out of it, got nothing else to do.
If something did not go as expected, I would really like to know why and if anyone else is facing the same issue. This is the first time in the last two years that the money has not arrived as expected. I had plans for Monday.

I know that Bangkok Bank had some issues today, so maybe that is why you didn't get it today.
Could you kindly elaborate? what sort of issue?

Last Friday, as every month, money was sent via WISE from Europe to my Bangkok Bank account.
Typically, the money arrives the next day at 2 PM. However, due to the weekend, I expected the money to arrive on Monday, the next business day, which has always been the case when money was sent on a Friday. However, today being Monday and it being 2 PM, the money has not arrived yet.
This has never happened before. Is anyone facing the same issue?- 1

Uhhm the 400K Baht is one of the options for marriage visa extensions but that wasn’t his rule that’s been a rule for several years before he was ever the Immigration Chief he had absolutely nothing to do with that. All that happened under his tenure was that they did away with income affidavits and changed the procedures of HOW you actually verify your income or 400K or 800K in a Thai bank account. The actual rules didn’t really change that much and the monthly income requirement or the 400K or 800K income rules didn’t change at all as far as the minimum monthly income requirement or money in the bank.
The biggest change was the procedures for verifying the 800K option for retirement visa extensions. Bottom line the actual financial requirements never actually changed under the previous Immigration Chief and they have always been the same for several years before he took over he didn’t make that rule as you say. All they did was actually start making us prove our income or money saved in a Thai bank account for real instead of using an Embassy letter. And “pigs” really, have a little more respect for Law Enforcement then that. And understand that this isn’t your home country.
They did not get rid of the income affidavit at all, only 4 embassies chose to stop issuing them.
All other embassies still issue them as usual, after they've seen your pension letters or other proof of income. And IM still accepts them for extension as usual.
Only those from those 4 embassies were left out in the cold to fend for themselves, so TH IM had to give them this monthly transfer option to help expats from these 4 embassies.

Wonder what procedures are in place now with the new regulations.

Then he should think about why he didn't think about that before he got old.
That's like stopping work maybe when you are 65 and then you think: From what should I live now?
There was enough time to do some planning...
That's not answering the question, no need to stomp on the fact that they haven't got one yet, just yes or no. What options are there for Expats over 80, which are probably in the thousands that resides here.
How long does WISE take to transfer to Kasikorn Bank?

Sounds great, so basically it's instantanious. with Bangkok Bank it doesn't arrive until the next business day.
Perfect, I think I'm going to switch.
