Hi, guys!

Can anyone give recommendations on what bank in Thailand would be easily linked with PayPal? Did anyone actually link their thai bank account to Paypal? I m planning on staying for around a year in BKK and would need to set up PayPal on my Thai account for regular receivement of payments from few different countries...I understand the best way is to try iy for myself, but would be happy to save time knowing ahead...Any practical experience? Would appreciate any advice! Thanks!

My wife and I are connected to three banks - Bangkok Bank, Kasikorn, and Siam Commercial. It's a piece of cake for us and we both have Thai accounts, although in addition to my Thai bank account I also link to a US account.

So...try for yourself.
