WISE large transfers, any recent problems?
To be honest, when transfers were instantaneous, it didn't matter if I called it personal expenses or the supporting family (or whatever the precise wording is). For the more recent next-day transfers, I just leave it on personal expenses as I doubt it has any impact on how it's handled, either by Wise, or whatever corresponding Thai bank they work with. It never made any difference to what the all-important coding was after deposit here in Thailand. -

Miserable Expats Who Can’t Stop Complaining About Thailand but Never Leave
Thailand, and a few other Asian countries, are the type of places that you just have do the "whatever" response, or you will end up nuts... a good anology is "It's like lying down in a stream and just letting the water flow over you". That doesn't mean you have to like everything or can't be critical, but it means you have to just let it go.... many people are wrapped far too tight for here, and probably too tight for where they came from for that matter, but had expectations it would be different. One thing many people struggle with is unrealistic expectations and a difficulty to accept difference in culture... some can hack it, some can't. To have longevity here, you need open mindedness, tolerance, acceptance, willingness to learn and latitude on a whole bunch of stuff, and many people simply don't have that, as they are a product of the western self-centered "Me" culture and my rights etc. South East Asia is great for many, but not all, and it all depends on you and your mindset. However, nothing new here for those that have resided here a long time and endured. -

That is always the case..... The money counts but they rather love Chinese tourists for years, all other countries were not important... Now suddenly with less tourists they re invented the wheel as Westerners spend more, as they have always done in their holidays here, but which was never seen
