WISE transfer delays

my transfers of 5.000 euro arrive within seconds from my Wise account to my Kasikorn account
 
After months of delayed transfers using WISE for UK/Thailand, I used Wise on Thursday to transfer my pittance State Pension and was pleased that it arrived here a few minutes after the instruction was sent - the first time it has happened that way in many months.
 
My transfers with Wise from the UK to Thailand usually arrive in seconds.
Last week I sent one, and they said it would take 17 minutes to arrive,
It arrived exactly 17 minutes later.:)
 
My transfers into Thailand have always been to the Bangkok Bank. They arrived seconds after being sent by WISE until last year when they started taking several days. WISE always blamed the receiving bank for delays, but were able to forecast the arrival time here to the minute as soon as the transfer instructions were sent. How the hell could WISE know that several days in advance?

It will be interesting to see if last Thursday's swift transfer is replicated next month.

I would say safe.............................but not as safe as the way that UK bank deposits are guaranteed (by the government) up to £120,000.


I am reluctant to continue to maintain balances with WISE as I had 40,000 Baht taken from my WISE account yesterday.

I hope it was promptly returned! We just finished a 6 week tour in Italy and France, and our Wise debit card/euros was very useful, accepted everywhere. Can even use it on trams/buses/trains in many cities
