My bangkok bank stopped working again for the second time today.
I opened my account 2 years ago on tourist visa and one year ago I received DTV.
3 months ago my bangkok bank app stopped working and I couldn't use scan,atm or pay for anything. After reading throughly I was prepared for them to close my account and when I came to the branch they said they can unfreeze it if I show them my work contract ( I work online) and one year rental contract which I did and they unfroze my account.
Today they froze it again and after calling the main telephone number they refused to give me any info beside telling me to go to my branch.
I have a feeling that this will be permanent and there is no way out of this.
Strange, I transferred alot money and use the account daily , pay bills and rent and all my expenses throughly. Yet they froze my account second time without giving me any pre notice.
The first time they froze it I was about to pay for a taxi ride and thought that the driver had a problem. Luckily I had some cash in my pocket otherwise it would put in a very uncomfortable situation.
The second time I tried to buy something on lazada and received the same error.
I'm tried of this behavior , they clearly treat us as second class citizens yet they complain the quality tourism is in decline.
