SWIFT no issues.

No but worse exchange rate. Wise no issues if you process correctly

The underlying issue with WISE is that it is not an international transfer. Wise has a bank that debits your account ex-Thailand and a bank in Thailand that credits your Thai account.

 

And I looked at it early on and decided the potential gain with Wise ain't worth the potential downsides as others have described plenty.

You only hear about the very small minority that have issues, usually because fail to plan plan to fail. Wise works well for the majority

I have used the 65K+ deposit method since the onset. I looked at Wise and decided the possible gain from Wise wasn't worth it.
