So, you applied for an UNsecured card? OP is asking about secured cards.

Most places I ordered from listed a low amount on the customs form. If you're really into shaving as a hobby, you'll need to order from the USA. That's where the wet shaving action is from soaps, splashes, brushes, razors, etc.

Though I still wet shave, I'm no longer in the hobby. Right before covid, I got into it and bought many artisan brushes, soaps, after shaves, and razors ordered from abroad. Most stuff got through without being taxed.

That was my experience flying into the US (Houston) last month and out of the US (Denver) this month. Still have to take shoes off though.

This is in line with what Bangkok Bank told me. It doesn't explain why some are also having trouble with Visa debit cards though. I was able to successfully add and use my daughter's Krung Sri Visa debit with Grab yesterday though.

I called Bangkok Bank about this issue yesterday evening. I had some trouble understanding the lady, but she mentioned Kasikorn Bank and Mastercard. It seemed like an issue that might be resolved sooner or later. Both of my cards that don't work are Mastercards (BB and Krung Thai.) Is anyone having trouble with Visa?
