Thailand Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 With " free transfer" with Dee money for March which is preferred? I will have sterling to transfer to both Thailand and HK in the next few days. Or simply transfer inter bank at 3-5 working days? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMhee Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Unless they've changed their format; Dee only transfers out to repatriate funds I've been led to believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Never used either. I see with Wise I can pay with "Debit Card", is that their own debit card or my remitting banks debit card? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pib Posted March 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2021 Wise can not transfer baht out of Thailand...quite a few countries Wise can not transfer out of....countries listed on their web site. But the easiest way to see if Wise can transfer out a certain currency is to see if you can select a currency such as "THB" in their "You Send" currency convertor at their website. DeeMoney is for transferring funds out of Thailand; not for transferring money into Thailand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyup Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 With "Wise" it is better to transfer funds to their UK bank account from your bank I believe there is a higher charge for using your debit card. They have better rates than Dee IMHO. Dee seems to allow transfers from Thailand to other countries. Easy to compare "Wise" rates and charges versus your bank or other transferring apps before committing If you use this invite you get your first transfer up to £500 free FYI I get a bonus if 3 people sign up from my link I am currently donating all my bonuses to the local bowling club green renovation fund here In Phuket https://wise.com/invite/u/robertk160 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Pib Hope you can help me understand when I tried to transfer GBP to my Thai bank with ' Wise ' clicking on debit card using my computer because I bottled out after ' Wise ' directed me entering a page for UK bank using my secure key a page came up with details of transfer. My bank wrote be careful about fraud etc and I checked the bank details were correct for my Bkk bank account. But this is where I felt wary, It wants money sending to bank code 23-14-70 is that Transferwise.? and A/C No. 54518782. there was another below No. pisp 227917807 My bank page also said I can make more secure but it wanted me to download an 'app' on my phone and do things that seemed too complicated for me, do I really need to do that as well.?. At the bottom of page I could click and money would be sent to Transferwise was that all I really needed to do.. I didn't do anything and just cancelled.

KannikaP Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) In my case, I have a Wise Borderless account, with a sort code and number for a UK account, also a EUR and USD and THB account. I simply transfer GBP to that UK Borderless account via online banking or debit/credit card from my Nationwide account which recieves my UK pension and other incomes. I then convert some of those GBP into THB each week for a very small charge, whenever the rate is good, until I have enough THB to send to my Bkk Bank on 1st of each month, stating that the purpose is for long stay in Thailand. It usually arrives next day into my Bkk Bank as an FTT. I can also use that debit card here to buy things in THB if my balance is sufficient.

The 23-14-70 is Wises' sort code and I guess the 54518782 is a general account. The 227917807 is your personal number at Wise. The phone app is a method of second security, and a code will be sent to that phone number to enable you to use the PC app. They are looking after YOUR money. I personally find the app very easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I stick with my computer and wanted to know if I can just go ahead with the transaction page without using the phone app thingy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have read here and on Wise.com it is not a problem to do it on your computer in fact probably easier as you can bring up a separate page when Wise provide their transfer info for you to then do the bank transfer. I also have dumb fingers and can barely see apps on a mobile.???? Edited March 20, 2021 by Thailand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
