What is the correct phone number to call Bangkok Bank from abroad?
#Bangkok Bank Phone No ?
Hello, I am trying to check my account balance at the BKB by phone from abroad : +66 2645 5555... But it says that this No is not valid. It worked in perfectly the past. Does anyone know whether the No has changed and what is the new No ? Thank you !
I am in France. Weird.... I tried to call other fixed lines in Thailand (Siam Bank, Bangkok post, a hotel I know, etc.) ALL end up the same : "The number is incorrect, please check and dial again"... Yet, calling the USA, Canada, Switzerland : no problem... WEIRD.... 📷

OPUnfortunately, I do not have m-banking with BKB because one can only register for m-banking if one has a work permit (I am a retiree, never worked in Thailand)...
