thai banks must love these silly rules... 800k farang money x ....
with zero to little interest to be paid...
while people using 'agents' have to prove nothing, ever...
and no crack down on it, too much easy money involved...
I got harassed by immigration last time, I switched banks, even they had 400k each , new bank 800k for at least 2 months, bank statements for both, bank letter only for new bank, but nooooooooooooooooooooo... they wanted a bank letter from the old bank to prove it was mine, because statements in my name, on bank head letter paper and passbook in my name, was not enough proof... old bank had less then 1000 baht left on it, due to changes...
