TLDR : Answer Summary

The CW branch of SCB Bank in Bangkok has closed, requiring customers to travel to the nearest local branch near Big C. This closure occurred during the COVID-19 lockdown, so it's important for expats needing banking services related to visa extensions to be aware of this change.

Yep, they closed months ago (right about the time of the covid-19 lock down) and you're right, the one at the Big C is the closest SCB Branch.. :(

Thanx for the reminder :)
