800,000 still in the bank

Featured Replies

Due to go to Jomtien immigration to prove 800,000 still in the bank, anymore paperwork required more than a deposit into the account the same day & book updated

Thanks

I think you need the original sheet given to you telling you to return, and the usual passport copies too. 

I just did my update a few minutes ago at Jomtien.

 

I needed photocopies of the Facepage of my passport as well as the page showing the most recent Extension of Stay stamp.


As well, I need photocopies of the "name page" of my bankbook (which shows the account number and your name) as well as the page with the most recent balance.

I also needed the "appointment" page that they gave me when I did my extension.

Naturally, you have to sign all the photocopies.

 

Note: I updated my (Fixed Term) bankbook at a machine near Jomtien Immigration a few minutes before I went there. The machine did NOT print today's date when it updated the book. It did print the last transaction (an interest payment deposited just over 3 weeks ago) and it printed when the next "due date" was for the Fixed Term (which is in 2020).


I spoke to the guy at the front desk and he told me I needed to make a "100 baht deposit" so that the update would show today's date but you can't do that with a Fixed Term (at an ATM machine) as far as I know.

However, I spoke to a woman that handles the "bankbook" check and explained it to her. She wanted to see the actual bankbook.

She saw that the update noted the next "due date" (being August 2020) and said that was good enough. She then checked that I had all my other photocopies (signed) and had me sign the "appointment" sheet and that was it.

To be on the safe side though, I'd go to a bank branch (when it's open) and get them to do the book update. I think the command they use to update the book then prints the current date whereas the machine outside only seems to print the date of the last transaction on the account.

No need to make a deposit.  Just update at an ATM, even with fixed deposit. The bank book will show the balance on the date you updated.  At least that is what I did for Jomtien.

From my experience the bankbook will only be updated as of today at the self-service machines if having done a same day transaction.

At SCB they even told me they can not update at the counter without transaction, stupidos.

From what others wrote (not my experience), you have to deposit at least a 1000 Baht on a fixed deposit to get an update (at the counter).

Never do a withdraw from a fixed deposit account!

 

Bangkok Bank can do an update without transaction at the counter.
