I hope this falls I to the everything else category.
I have been in the UK since April and have had no issues with my Bangkok Banking app for the three years I have had the account. Today I tried to open the app and was presented with the message below. I am somewhat surprised because I bought the sim card I use in 2019 and opened my bank account in 2022. I certainly did not use anyone elses name to get either. I have rung the number and spoken to someone about the issue and they say I have to go to my local branch to sort it out. As that is over 6000 miles away I explained it wasnt possible! I also explained that now I am unable to pay my rent or for utilities and other things. He told me he would look into it and would contact me within 5 days by email. I dont hold out much hope. I also need to transfer money back to UK as the cost of living here is horrendous and I cant return to Thailand until October.
Has anyone else had this situation and found a way to get around it from abroad? I am aware that it has happened to others but I thought I was safe as I had both sim and account in my name?
I just have a question regarding my bank application from SCB
I am not in the country right now, but I just wanted to check anything on the SCB app and got the information "UNABLE TO PROCEED" while opening the app.
I’m the only one who have this issue?
As information, I made the bank account few years ago on an official way with work permit.
I’ve just had my banking app temporarily suspended.
I was notified last week that my banking app would be suspended due to my name on my account and my sim not matching. I opened both with my passport.
However I decided to fulfil their wishes, I went to my SIM card provider and got the required receipt showing my name and phone number, I then duly went to my bank and provided the receipt from the phone company, my passport and I was photographed again.
Naturally I thought ok job done everything should be ok no banking app suspension for me.
Tit, my banking app was suspended today. I will now have to visit my bank and go through this again I guess.
My wife and I hope to arrive in Bangkok on non-immigrant OA visas at the beginning of July. We normally get tourist SIMs but this time, we'd like to get numbers that we can extend and use once we get our retirement visas. Can anyone recommend an esim that we can sign up for from outside the country and which we can use indefinitely? Grateful for any suggestions.
