I heard that in Phuket like a purple bank is the only norm to make a card and for it to work abroad? Tell me, how problematic is it to open an account with a card with a student visa?

Where is the information about: here it seems to be a purple can one norm?) Is there a link to read? For me, there is one bank of norms here - KrungThai, works in Asian countries in any ATM, I see no reason why it should not work in Asian countries. Payment system VISA/MC international. In the application OF ONLY this bank there is an opportunity to issue virtual cards with a limit, it is very convenient to bind them to different Internet services. For 5+ years of use, I have not contacted support and do not know their phones. Platinum tariff 1800 baht/year including insurance. By stud. it was opened before without problems.
