Recommended Posts

Can this place get any more ridiculous? I was unable to buy a ticket on BKK Airways with my BKK Bank debit card today only credit cards accepted, and they emailed me a code that I now have to go to 7-11 and buy the ticket with.

I tried to buy a ticket a couple of weeks ago using a visa card.

 

Kept rejecting it. I called my bank and they said there should not be a problem.

 

So I booked with another airline

 

Their loss

makes sense but it would present a problem if there is no 7-11 near by to complete the transaction.

Then there is a fair chance you are not in Thailand. Even the two Bob town near us has three.

I booked and paid for an AirAsia flight with my BB debit card on Wednesday night at 7.30pm for a flight to Bangkok the following morning. The only option for payment is by card as all other options require a period of over 24 hours before departure.

My debit card is visa verified so no problem and also I'm a BIG member.

With Bkk Airways, can you pay with online [Thai] banking?  Either from desktop or mobile apps?  If so, which banks do they support?

 

I know AirAsia you could and it was the cheapest option to book an 8-person itinerary (only 70 baht fee using desktop booking).   They wanted 590 or 790 for any counter service option (7-eleven, Tesco, etc)

Another option is to buy Bangkok Airways ticket through 3rd Party Sites.

I normally use Traveloka for checking price and booking flights and I can pay using credit/debit cards.

Is it true that not every 7-11 do electronic payment services? Only certain big ones? I bought air ticket and try using tops outlet as payment but the tops express store nearby my place said I can only pay at regular tops supermarket.

Pilotman, lets be reasonable I have over 10,000 accrued bonus flyer points on them. You always have a SA remark for any point you don't like, please do not respond to any of my posts anymore unless they are supportive or informative. If you are really are a professional pilot tell me the formula to figure out 8 degrees required for climbout on a departure, and tell it to us all now, not after you have researched it for a few hours.

Oh yawn, This and the following two posts. Stick it back in your pants. No one is impressed.

 

And the post that you're getting your bloomers in a knot over was a perfectly logical reply. Don't use them. No anyone else's problem that you've got a few points with them -- which has nothing to do with them not accepting debit cards.

If you're smart, you use a credit card. It's never a good idea to buy big-ticket items with a debit card. No protections.
