What visa options are available for expats in Thailand with a company bank account?

Christopher ********

Just move the money. It’s about the ending balance for most. If you need it in there for some months just do that.

The embassy has a font detector to see if you changed your documents etc. most likely you don’t have the bank font and they will notice and it’s not just a denial they could prosecute you.
