No. My bank card expired and they replaced it no problem even though I'm on a DTV. They looked at my passport as well so they definitely knew.

Oh Im far from worried fella πŸ˜‚

Losing your bank card doesn't stop anyone paying any money into your account either, so yeah, far from obvious!

TT exchange where you change your currency. The one in Naklua is the main for Pattaya I believe but there was one on Pattaya Klang on the opposite side from Big C

I havent been over for 18 months though so not sure if that one is still there.

I understand its awkward not being able to use a cash machine but at least your valuables are safe
