I have transferred funds from my UK bank to Wise who have transferred to my Bangkok bank account, this was yesterday 7th Oct, but my Bangkok Bank has not recieved them.

TI went to my Bangkok Bank today and they told me to come back on Friday. this is the first time in all my years with Wise this has ever happened. Do I have anything to worry about?

Even if you have nothing to worry about....you're still going to worry.....I would.

 

I just made a transfer in the UK bank to bank and the bar-stewards took four days to make the transfer.

 

I'm sure holding money on account during transfers must be a nice little earner for them.

 

Worst I had with Wise to Thailand (Bangkok Bank was four days)

Did you send as monthly expenses or as long-term stay funds?

 

Monthly expenses show up in BKK Bank account in seconds, while long stay funds typically show up the next day between 1-2pm.

Initiated a Long Term Bht 35000 transfer from UK to Bkk Bank yesterday morning at 6am our time.

Arrived, as usual, at 14.02 the same day, as an International Transfer.

Anything other than Long Stay or Property purchase are usually instant unless over a certain limit, of which I do not know. Did a couple of 20k & 30k last week = Instant.

I wonder whether it is better to convert your GBP (or USD) into THB first and then send THB to THB. That's how I do it with never any problems, and you can convert when the rate looks a little better.

If you'd have kept the Bkk Bank account, you would be able to transfer Wise to Bkk and not pay Bht 220 every time you use Wise ATM card.

Last transfer to Bangkok Bank was Nov 1 early morning.

Arrived in the afternoon same day.

In four years or do there were not more than 2 anomalies/delay.

I transfer Euro from the WISE account.

Transferring from German bank to WISE is a different story.

Friday to Monday...

At least one working day.

Have you seen when the money arrived at WISE?

In the last few days things have been pretty slow. I cancelled my transfer, tried again and it went through quickly.

That's very strange, I transfer from Wise to my Kasikorn account without problems, almost instantly or 90 minutes at most. Never took more than 1 day.

 

Very weird.

A slight change in topic here. Will I be able to get funds transfers to Wise from my UK bank if I change from my Bangkok bank and recieve the funds to my Krungthai bank account instead, or will I just get a lot of hassle?
