Are you saying no WISE transfers before 10.00 or after 16.00?

Public holidays and banking hours  

We can only move your money during normal banking hours. So if you send money outside of those hours, it may take longer than usual. National holidays can also affect the transfer speed, so if you’re sending to a different country, make sure to check that it doesn’t fall on a holiday.

 

Does that mean normal UK hours or Thai hours, which can be 7 hours different? Thai banks close at 16.00, which is only 9am in UK.

Does it automatically show up in the bankbook and on the bank statement as an international transfer?

No.

So for me at least, I will carry on using Bangkok Bank where it shows up automatically and the transfer from BKK Bank to KBank is instant and free.

 

As for Wise, I am disgusted. They told me that my 2 transfers would be in BKK Bank at 14:13 today but the bank notified me at 14:00. I shall write to the Times about it,
