What are the signs that my Bangkok Bank account has been frozen?

Paul *********

guy next me from the UK had a 12 month student visa. They checked his passport, saw the 90 day stamp and refused to unlock his account. Said it must be 12 months, he said it is but they stamp every 90 days. They said no and closed his account. I am sure they make this up as they go along.....

Mine got locked Friday night. No indication in the app or email notification. When I tried to pay i got a message like invalid recipient.

Had to wait till Monday to go to the branch I opened the account from.

Wrong visa so account was closed.
