Like most Malaysians, Pattaya is not a place I want to go.

She was, she was born in Nigeria, then moved to the US with her mother at age 13. I can only imagine her family were caught up in the Biafran war, that's the only major conflict in Nigeria during Queen Elizabeth's reign that the UK took sides. UK supported Nigeria against the Biafran separatists. But doesn't justify the tirade against the dying Queen. I guess her book sales aren't going well. .

There was one about money lost from a Thai bank account recently. Guy lost his phone in a bar, but his password was date of birth, which isn't too bright. Also it wasn't his first time losing things, so wasn't surprised the bank weren't interested in giving him a refund. But there was a second thread, maybe a month ago, with someone losing money from a Santander account having lost his phone and cards(?) which sounds very similar. Santander were had little sympathy, much like Charlotte's case in the original article, which was also Santander. .

Maybe not such a good idea. I have different PINs for each of my cards.

Thanks for the correction, I hadn't realised I could now change my PIN at the ATM in the UK. Though the point about PIN reminders, I can't find any option in either the KBank or Krungsri banking apps that lets me request a PIN reminder.

I don't think they can use this method with Thailand banks. UK banks issue you with card and PIN, posted separately, there is no option to change the PIN at the ATM. Thai ATM PIN numbers are registered on the card when you activate a new card at the bank, you enter your own PIN, you can also change your PIN at the ATM. Thai banking apps don't have the same option UK banks have to send a PIN reminder. But it's worth taking the advice given in that article and disable notifications on the lock screen.

He's going to have problems with that wherever he goes. I bank with HSBC Singapore and use Wise to transfer money out. Transfer to Wise Singapore is a local transfer so no CLIE and no bank charges. But you can't move USD to Wise Singapore, you need to move from the MultiCurrency Account into your SGD account first, at the bank exchange rate.

Has he thought about Singapore, nearer than the UK if he's living in Thailand.
