Wise can send up to 2 million baht to Bangkok Bank and to Kasikorn Bank. 1.5 million baht to SCB (well 1.499999 milion). Usually at the higher end a bank transfer is the most cost efficient but that sounds not to be the case for Euros and Spanish banks.

Hasn't your thread on that subject made you realise you have little to no chance of succeeding? https://aseannow.com/topic/1328833-thinking-about-becoming-a-thai-citizen/

It depends among other things on your tax residency status, whether any monies you remit are assessable or not and the provisions of the UK DTA. I see from another post you've found the banking, business, investments forum so you should be able to find out what you're after in the discussions there, in particular the two pinned topics discussing tax.

If you apply in the Phillipines will the passport actually be issued there or are they just a postbox service and the actual passport will be issued in Switzerland and couriered back to the PI? If that's the case it removes the obstacle you foresee.

It took Heinecke 28 years from moving here and about 24 of these in business before he got his. If you're 53 as mentioned you may not have that time available.

Enable/disable the card via the app just before and after using it.

I think it will before long. They've already programmed a field for fees in the app you can see in your screenshot so they must have had something in mind when they did that.

That looks like the Bangkok Bank app. scubascuba3 was referring to charges using the Kasikorn app (at a BBL ATM).

If you have issues using the barcode (some bank apps are reported as misbehaving) there is a Line account mentioned on the bill. Talk to them there and they'll let you know what to do.

Deleted - error.

Not immediate going by the wording on this.

There is a specific type of joint account where the survivor can legally access the funds that gets mentioned on here frequently. I can't remember the exact name but hopefully someone will be along soon who has one and can tell you what to ask for if you want one.

Can you expand on the process for Wise "pulling" from your bank? I always fund my transfers by sending money from my bank to Wise and wasn't aware of a pull option. I wonder if that is causing the issue.

OP doesn't want the airport supplied wheelchair but is asking about taking his own and where it'll end up. If he mentions the airline concerned he might get some informed responses rather than general information or guesses. Tipping the assistant? No, their employer takes care of their payment.

Incorrect. You claimed to have a backup and it wasn't what a reasonable person would call practical. You have now added a failure to accept the obvious being pointed out to you with a dire threat to my peaceful existence. Go and have a lie down please.

What? Your alternative method wasn't available at the point of payment so not really what most reasonable people would call a decent Plan B. You stick with it though if you think being escorted to an ATM by a staff member is a decent choice of backup.

Because you don't rely on one method according to your OP but your alternative was not immediately available to you without being frogmarched to an ATM.

Yet you got "escorted to the ATM"? Strange.

Did you fail to see the thread that was at the top of this forum when you posted? Already 11 pages long and discussing this exact issue. https://aseannow.com/topic/1328402-big-thailand-visa-changes-from-june-1/

The Brits have now made a formal complaint to the police according to the Pattaya News.

How are you accessing XE to get no fees, or is it an introductory offer or something? Using the app, I see a fixed fee of 1.99 GBP, 2.99 USD or 3.99 AUD.

The video in question was linked to by LennyW on this page and shows the 3 guys leaving the scene.

No, there isn't. It's mentioned on the previous page that video exists of them leaving the scene and reportedly later on crossing Pattaya Klang under their own steam.

Any changes between applications?

There is later video of them leaving the fight scene, albeit the white shirted one was on wobbly legs, and later crossing Klang at the junction with 2nd Road. Both would appear to indicate somewhat of a recovery.
