TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the challenges of opening a bank account in Phuket with a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). One commenter suggests that Bangkok Bank can assist with the process, highlighting the necessary documents required, such as a rental contract and a certificate of residence, along with the necessity of providing proof to avoid appearing as a scammer. There are also concerns about potential account holds by the bank after opening.

Bangkok bank in central festival can do it. You need the rental contract, certificate of residence, your driving license from your original country others documents showing that you re not a scammer and have the intention to live here long-term... needed to buy the accident insurance cost in total 7000THB.
