Her salary deposited in Taugausau bank?

Never heard of that, i thought government employees were paid via Krung Thai bank.

Things dont add up, so maybe your wife is not being truthful with you, you say only you have her bank card, sorry dont ring true.

Many ladies here are not honest with their farang husbands regarding money, my ex -wife never ever told me the truth about money.

I am not doubting what you say, but i think you should be looking closer to home, for the answer.

Where/how did you meet your thieving ex?

  • Don't just change the PIN, cancel the card and get a new one.   My knowledge of the ATM system is old, but IIRC the PIN is (indirectly) stored on the card and not verified at the back office

  • update to theft.   good news!  bank has reluctantly admitted to making an error depositing her salary - it took them 2 days and several phone calls so there was no 2nd theft of 6000.  we will follow u

Her cousin and uncle had been friends of mine for a couple of years and they introduced her to me.

Nice try...troll.

 

Apparently, alcohol and PIN numbers don’t mix.

? Do you know what trolling means? Apparently not. 

 

YOU wrote it yourself that you heard about a foreigner who was so stupid to let a bg know his pincode. Or maybe you were that foreigner and now you feel offended 555

I am rarely offended and never by idiots.

 

I simply recounted a story. A Farang, a bar girl, a PIN number and alcohol.

 

That combination rarely turns out well for the Farang.

ok, I think we had some miscommunication. Let's leave it with that. Have a nice day.

If I have money missing from my bank account I want to know where it is now.

Are you 100% sure this is mandatory. I mean it sounds very odd to have to have a bank account with a specific bank. Sounds shady.

yes am sure all salaries from wife's district office must be  direct deposited (by her) in  employee accounts at 1 branch of the BAAC.  Of course all are free to have other accounts.  I believe her provincial head office mandated  this policy.

I was involved in three electronic salary deposit arrangements with Thai employers. With two of the three I was told to open an account at the bank and branch used by the employer. At the third one, I was able to use an existing account at a different branch of the same bank.

I too, when teaching at a particular university had to open a separate account in another bank in order for my salary to be deposited.  It appears quite common.

Update;  wife followed up yesterday with bank and was told that head office in BKK promised to both credit 6,000 (bank deposit error) to new bank account on Sep 12 (2 weeks),  and complete investigation of 15,000 (theft).  I will continue to post FYI.   I want to add that wife gets VIP treatment at this bank branch office (she manages government accounts deposited there) so God help a normal account holder!
