So troublesome to open bank account now. Things were so much simpler about 20 years ago. I had an account with Bangkok Bank in McCallum street then. When I asked the manager about opening account in Thailand, he gave me an intro letter and when I was in Hatyai I handed over the letter and my money to the bank. Fifteen minutes later I left the bank with my new account, atm card and bankbook.
