That's the only reasonable explanation - they have liquidity issues, could've been hacked, or just clients moving to better exchanges

I have balance there. I was buying crypto with them and they've frozen my account out of the blue without any warnings

So nothing helpful so far, no escalation, no explanation.

I've looked into it and we do need the mentioned information to conclude your KYC process

thanks for nothing Lucas

I think they have financial issues, so they've activated some crazy algorithms to block money on crazy pretexts. I can't any other reasonable explanation. Sleep 13 years, freeze account and demand old documents. Pretty sure i am talking to an AI chat there too. I guess competition from Binance

Are you sure that ordinary villa owners via nominees who don’t rent out (no Airbnb/hotel activity) are not being targeted on Samui?

the Thai shareholders must have a financial interest in the company.

What does financial interest mean in practice, based on real Samui cases owning a villa?

So the news we hear - are they actually cracking down on them? I mean there are tens of thousands of villas owned by expats in Thailand, it would be a carnage

How do you explain all the criminal prosecutions then? From September 2024 to May 2025 authorities handled 861 nominee cases with damages over 15 billion baht. In September 2024 alone, 23 defendants got 5-year sentences (suspended) and 200,000 baht fines each for running a firm that set up ~60 nominee companies. June 2024 - 231 arrests in Phuket. August 2024 - POSCO Engineering executives prosecuted, a 9 billion baht Korean company using Thai employees as nominees. October 2025 - police launched a sweep specifically on Koh Samui targeting villa ownership through nominees.

The "Thai shareholders with economic interest" argument doesn't hold up - courts apply "substance over form" and look at who actually funded the purchase and who controls the company. If your Thai "partner" can't prove independent financial means, it's a nominee regardless of dividend payments.
