I dont think any airline accepts debit cards for online bookings. I have used my Visa cards regularly with air asia with excellant service on line.

Garbage.

I use an international (non Thai) debit card for all my flights. Multiple airlines.

Air Asia accepts my Thai visa debit. Air AsiaX does not and will not. I have tried most of them and spoken to the call centre staff. The interent process about registering is misleading.

Exactly.....I did the same, but sad to say that most if not all call centre staff (Thailand) were unable to advise me the process about registering with AirAsia to use KBank debit Card.

This is Bait-and-Switch by Air-Asia. I've used my K-Bank card for dozens of online transactions with companies from all over the world. Air-Asia is the only one it doesn't work with. Even if you call airasia they tell you try again in an hour and it will work. I finally ended up going to the local office and paying cash for about 20% more than the online price.

Bait and Switch, sad but true.

Do AirAsia has an office/agent in Korat?

Thrilled, i suspect this thread isnt really valid anymore. Its 3 years old.

As a side-note, I use Kbank online..and everything works fine for me.

Hi eek,

Have you done any online booking of flight from AirAsia lately? Mine (several attempts) were declined ...

I think you will find it is Kasikorn where the issue lies. Been speaking to them a lot this week for clients who wanted to pay using K Bank debit card. We have been through all depts at the bank and they just cannot accept any debit card payments without the card present. It has to go through a swipe machine.

You should find Bangkok Bank and SCB cards should work OK.

I used Kasikornbank Atm/Debit Card regularly in Korat and bangkok without any hassle, but today I used the same card to buy something which cost about 30,000 bahts in Singapore... voila! it went through without a glitch.

I did enquired from both Singapore and Bangkok AirAsia sales counter at the airport as to whether they accept my KasikornBank Debit Card, ...both answered "sure, Why not" if you have enough monies in your bank

I think many of you got it wrong on physical card and visual card; please allow me to explain.

When you first open a saving account with KBank, you are given a ATM card for cash withdrawal however you can request for additional debit card facility. This electronic ATM/Debit card is acceptable everywhere in Thailand including most airlines if you have sufficient fund in your bank.

As for the visual card, you are alloted with 16 digits number plus cvv number (without a physical card) and this is strictly for online transaction only. I just don't understand why there are people use this number to make purchases...

Do you know, if somebody get hold of your credit card number especially the cvv number (pin number), they can go on a buying spree without your knowing....

Just another ruse by a budget airline to get more money while keeping the headline price low. Many of the budget airlines play this or other similar games.

I think that the convenience fee came in about 3 months ago and it is only when they started charging for credit cards that a lot of customers started looking at direct debit payment options. That's my experience on booking domestic flights anyway.

Not only budget airlines, the banks will promised everything you want and thereafter denied every word they said. This is LOS (land of sins) hazzzz....

Hi everybody,

Sometime early last year, my g/f told me that she has bought a 15 years saving insurance policy (Bancassurance's Gain 1st 220 Life Insurance And Saving Policy marketed by Bangkok Bank)

for 16,700.00 bahts/ and the annual premium payable thereafter is 8,400 bahts.

She has request me to deposit 700 bahts into her account every months so that the bank can deduct the premium from her account. Since this is the only money (700 bahts) she asked from me, I obliged.

However, yesterday we received a notice from Bangkok Bank saying that gf has to pay 16,700 bahts and not 8,400 bahts. We went straight to the Bangkok to confront the officer who sold her the insurance, but she denied that the annual premium is 8,400 bahts and insisted that she told my gf the annual premium is 16,700 bahts. I was very angry and told her to cancel the policy and close her bank account with immediate effect.

I got more furious when she told my gf that she will not get a single satan if she will to cancel the policy.

Can someone enlighten me on this? My doubt is...this is a "saving" policy and it is slightly more than a year old which warrant some pro-rate premium refund back, isn't it. Also, What about the 4% cash return of the total sum assured on the 2nd year Look at this

The convenience fee sure isn't very convenient to any customer I know of.

AirAsia...hazzzz

Just don't understand Air Asia mentality, apparently they issue AirAsia-KBank Credit Card but why can't they accept K-Bank debit card? Moreover, when I consulted an officer from the KBank call-centre who assured me that I can use K-Bank Debit Card to do online booking of flights from AirAsia.

Have you tried calling the Airline?

Yes, I did called the call-centre and I was told that AirAsia does not accept "KBank" VISA debit card but can use AirAsia-KBank VISA credit card. What kind of a system is this...AIRASIA?

They save a fee (small %) on their own branded card I imagine, hence the discrimination.

Don't forget, AirAsia charge a "convenience fee" for each and every debit or credit card online transaction.

Air Asia only accept Siam Commercial Bank account registrated with internet service.

I opened an account with them 2 months ago in order to avoid the credit card fee. (200 Baht)

Credit/Debit card charges (convenience fee) is 100 bahts.

Hi,

I bought these two monster from a small breeder in korat. There are now 7 months old with excellent temperament.

I bought them from a small breeder in korat.

Recently, she has some new born...4 female.

If you are keen, pm me for their contact.

Having the same problems with my TOT connection since early last week. Whenever there was a disconnection, I cannot use the same telephone line to call TOT call centre, the line was somehow disconnected. I used my mobile phone to call them many times but all to no avail,... my calls went unanswered.

Someone told us not to waste time waiting for the operator to answer your call, just report through their automatic answer service...do it 10 to 20 times a day!!! Let see who will attend to you...

Also, I logged on to 192.168.1.1 and redo the set-up again, VOILA! the connection come back again and stable for another few hours.

Hence, whenever my connection is unstable, I repeat the above again.

I dont think any airline accepts debit cards for online bookings. I have used my Visa cards regularly with air asia with excellant service on line.

I have been using my Singapore Master Debit Card for online bookings with AirAsia for more than a year without any problem at all. Btw, I have just booked a flight back to Singapore with AirAsia with the same Master Debit Card and was accepted instantly.

I have found if they are declined on the web, then I call can the ticket agent phone number in Thailand for AirAsia and the debit cards will clear.

Are you sure? I called AirAsia (Thailand) last evening and the officer specifically told me they accept "AirAsia-KBank Credit Card" only but does not accept K-Bank Debit Card...strange isn't it?

Hi Everybody,

I have a Kasikornbank's ATM/Debit Card and subsequently in December last year, I applied for K-Cyber Banking for the convenient of online purchase of air tickets. I was assured that I can use it for online transaction with AirAsia.

Today, I tried to purchase ticket from AirAsia online but were declined after several attempts. I called KasikornBank call centre and was told that I must register with AirAsia before I can make any online transaction, however I could not find any information in AirAsia website pertaining to this. I immediately called AirAsia (Thailand) and was shocked when told they does not accept K-Bank Debit Card. WHY?

Can someone enlighten me on this....please!

The increased of wp fee will eventually pass on to the consumers. So who suffer most....Thais not farangs

Q-Con blocks are the insulated lightweight blocks. I think you will have some problems finding custom sized concrete blocks. I think 39X18X6 is the standard size.

I'm not sure the OP needs custom size - the blocks are nominally 40 x 20 including mortar.

Cheers,

Mike

In korat there are 2 sizes and the price differ.

1. 39 x 19 x 7 or = 3.8 bahts

2. 38 x 19 x 6.6 = 3.50 bahts

Q-Con Blocks

don't seem to understand your language...

I was wondering anyone in korat or nearby knew where I can buy 9cm x 39cm x 18.5 cinderblock please?

Any help appreciated.
