Why are Bangkok Bank and AIS apps locking foreigners out of their accounts?

Max *************

@Stuart **********

It seems you think 800k is a lot of money. Fyi, I've been with Bangkok Bank many many years (and other banks as well) and I've never had any problems. I get more in interest on my Fixed Deposit Account here compared to back home. Stop whining about stuff you don't know anything about.
