how the heck do you get ahold of Bangkok Bank when your out of the country? I to the DTV right when it came out and paid a company a lot to get me a bank account with them which I used while there, I ended up going back to USA a year ago and lost my thai phone number that was tied to the account for the two factor authentication. Now I cant log in at all. Send the super detailed messages and never heard back from anyone more than a week ago. thanks in advance

Keeping US Number -

Hey folks, coming over for good in October - I need a US number for ONE reason only - 2 factor authorization!! Literally every day, for banking, Paypal, government, practically anything I log onto here, they send a text to my US number so I can log in. Of course I will have a VPN when I arrive, but how do I keep a US number [JUST to receive texts, won't be making or receiving calls with it!!]. I will keep my phone from here, and buy one there with a Thai number - how can I go about making/keeping this one as my "US phone''? Thank you

Have any other UK citizens successfully dealt with two-factor authentication with their UK numbers in Thailand? I've racked up heavy fees previously by having to turn on my UK sim to authenticate and wondering if there are methods to get around it.
