Looks like Krungsri are (wisely) getting ahead of the game at some branches by getting the photo and passport stuff ready for when their systems are updated. From the other thread linked above there are more actual examples of this. I'm sure your branch will get the memo soon.

Posted a couple of weeks ago. Still 50,000 THB to most banks, 1,499,999 THB to SCB and up to 2,000,000 THB to Kasikorn and BBL. Limits are per transaction. https://aseannow.com/topic/1245789-wise-transfer-limits-to-thailand-effective-7th-january-2022/#comment-18101942

There's another thread from a few days ago saying the TT exchanges in Pattaya weren't taking them. Government blaming the banks and banks blaming the government IIRC.

Working OK for me and told me what was missing when I deliberately skipped something.

I'm not interpreting anything, just reading what others have experienced and reported on here. Look for Pib's photos on this thread regarding BBL. The other poster mentioning his glasses is on there too and it's not the same guy as earlier in this thread. So three people having used their phones for facial verification gives a fair confidence level that's how it works. https://aseannow.com/topic/1293171-krungsri-50k-transfer-photo-requirement/ I'm not sure about your "over and out" statement. Are you dictating your posts on a radio?

Untrue going by other posts on here (probably in the banking section). One poster had trouble with the phone recognising him and put it down to lighting as it worked eventually in another location with better lighting. Another poster couldn't read the intructions on his phone (maybe the same guy as posted on Page 1 in this thread with what sounds like a similar issue).

Find his previous thread for all the info - it's in the IT and Computers section. Please don't make him repeat it all ????.

Not any more. They stopped in March/April this year.

Loading credit to the SIM from the bank account keeps both the SIM and the account active.

That's fine if they're on a printed card, but the ones on the till display won't be functioning without power.

Count me in on that, but it was many years ago and things change.

If you're talking about a UK private pension, it depends on your pension company. There's a poster on here whose pension company won't pay to Wise as they're not a "real" bank.

No. The UK requirement is technical in nature in that it improves the machine readability of the application form. The Thai requirement, although argueably valid in its day, is now outdated as explained above and should be removed, but there's no gain to them for doing it so it'll likely remain.

We're there in parts already, but that doeesn't mean your original statement which I responded to is valid.

Faster Payment System in the UK been around since 2008 and is almost instantaneous. Other countries have similar setups.

It's very fast currently. Lots of posts of Wise transfers arriving in seconds.

Similar to MartinL, I too successfully submitted and got approval on line following a trip last September time (Jomtien office for me). Will find out if it's still the case in just over a week as I was away again in Feb/March this year.

A much higher standard of evidence is required in the criminal courts so it's unlikely IMO.

I downloaded and use Bolt in Thailand. There is no other option available on the payment screen except cash. If you've downloaded or used it elsewhere where cards are accepted then maybe you have the option, but as you progress you'll have seen it doesn't work.

Yes, I used one this this morning but it was cash only which was the point I was replying too where it was claimed you could book and pay through the app.

Charlie asked 10 months ago and hasn't been back since a week later. He's probably flown already.

Available in some locations only, and Thailand isn't one of them.

Is the username "admin"?

I don't know but be prepared for a forum holiday for asking.
