PayPal transferring to Bangkok Bank

[BobBKK]

Hi, my Bangkok Bank account is linked to my PayPal but I keep getting messages "cannot transfer". Anyone else had this issue?

Message from BKK Bank or PP?

[TigerandDog]

which way are you trying to transfer, from PayPal to your bank account or vice versa? Here in Thailand you can ONLY transfer funds FROM PayPal to your Thai bank account. You cannot transfer in the other direction.

Transfer to BBL ok. Transfer to PayPal from BBL is a big NoNo.

[Pib]

No can do.

Aloha, I transfer twice each week from Bank of Hawaii to my wife's Bangkok bank account with no problems.  Never Ever transfer from BKK to USA.  Can cause problems with the process. Good Luck to You.

The thread is about transferring "out" of Thailand; not into Thailand.
