Do I understand correctly that the Farangs have tightened the receipt of a bank account? It used to be so simple: a contract and a passport with a visa/stamp, 300 baht and you're done.

That's just been to the branch of the BKK bank in Bang Tao. They asked for a certificate letter from the immigray (where the photo is, etc.) and a letter from the bank of the Russian Federation (I have Tinkoff) addressed to the BKK bank.
