Hello Group.

I opened a bank account with Bangkok Bank and deposited the 800,000 Baht into the account, which they told me I had to do. They’re also pestering me to open a savings account and deposit a further 100,000 Baht. I initially thought they were advertising me that any amount over 100,000 Baht attracted a 4% interest rate, so I said oh great. But have since realised, it’s a secondary account and I’ve now told them I don’t wish to open a second savings account. I’ve since had a few phone calls asking me to go in to make the deposit.

I’m assuming this is purely a secondary account and will not cause any issues with my bank account I’ve just opened ? I’ve been told I must make a deposit within 30 days of opening the initial account. The language barrier has made it a tad difficult to understand exactly what the process is. Any advice please ?

Thanks v much.
