why are you using ach? I transfer from my wise wallet into my thai account for paying only the service fee. No ach charge. 

 

I'm not.  I was answering the question I quoted and showing when a wire transfer is better than an ACH transfer.

 

In your case it appears your money is already with Wise so not applicable.

I did a transfer from my Wise borderless account yesterday using the long term stay in Thailand as the reason.

 

An email sent by Wise told me that my money was on the move and that it would be in my Bangkok bank account at 2:13 pm today.

 

Their timing was off by 12 minutes, as BKK bank sent me an SMS at 2:01 pm telling me me that the money was there, just the same as every other transfer I have made this year, arrives in my account around 2:01 pm plus up to 3 or 4 minutes. The exceptions are if the bank is closed for a bank or public holiday, when it will arrive on the next bank working day.

What is your Thai bank? 3 banks, last time I looked into it, were direct. My transfers show up within a few minutes to K-bank. Large transfers may be overnight. The other two fast banks are BKK and SCB I think.

I experienced a similar situation with BKK.

Small amounts (1K - 2K AUD) were credited in seconds.

 

But for the last transfer, I get an email saying ...

Your money's on its way

We're processing your money now — it'll reach your bank soon.

 

Large transfers may be overnight. - How much would be considered large?

Aren't these transactions automated?
