The list of banks is out of date, i think. Some new ones may have appeared. Some old ones 'disappeared' :o

What do you think?

If this question has been asked recently, sorry!

Good idea... :D

Might also like to know how easy it is to open an account...

Yes do the poll again and include the government banks as well ! Good list of banks - but some of them have little to do with the man on the street - ie JPMorgan (well as far as i am aware - perhaps I'm not rich enough)

regardless my vote is with kasikorn !

But government savings bank give the best return on deposits currently according to Topfield !

Perhaps there should be a seperate poll on the delectible staff of a particular bank (given the last post) - well in that case it would have to be Krung Thai bank - but which branch ? Heres a clue - Khon Kaen...

Opening an account is easy so long as you bear in mind the following :

* Dress well

* Be polite

* Be prepared to make a big deposit - can be withdrawn soon after

* If turned down, keep on trying

I've had 7 thai bank accounts and never had a work permit. Its down to the person you deal with and their superiors. Having a good story for wanting the account helps. But if you promise something you should deliver on it or face having your account closed !

HTH

The list of banks is out of date, i think. Some new ones may have appeared. Some old ones 'disappeared' :o

What do you think?

If this question has been asked recently, sorry!

Good idea... :D

Might also like to know how easy it is to open an account...
