TLDR : Answer Summary

Users have reported that the Bangkok Bank app was down on a particular day, causing frustration among customers who were unable to access their funds. Some users speculated it might be due to technical maintenance or updates, while some users confirmed that the app was functioning again shortly after the issue. Additionally, the conversation shifted towards the importance of having cash on hand during banking app outages, highlighting the need for redundancy in banking methods.

Can anyone tell me if having a Bangkok bank account ( in a rural province) makes it easier to get an account opened in a branch in Bangkok? Thanks

Yes that is right. I have a passbook and an expired ATM card. I never go to Udon Thani anymore and would like to set up my banking in Bangkok to get ready for retirement. I have heard it is near impossible to change branches with the same account. But does having this account make it easier to open another account. I want to build up funds for retirement.

Only way to know is to go ask the branch. Each one is different. In Bangkok I always recommend Krugsri, I find them to be the easiest to open accounts with.

I have krungsri, it's working fine. But for future reference, I always like to keep a few thousand baht in cash on me, and a little more in my condo. You never know when stuff stuff will stop working. Even in the US, credit card systems go down occasionally due to weather.
