I heard something that in March or April. All magnetic credit cards in thailand stop working and can use only replaced card with chip only

When is the exact date of expire the old Kk?

if by Kk you mean ATM card not sure there is one. I get a reminder every time I use mine in the ATM but it does not currently say anything about when it will stop working.

After January 15, 2020, all magnetic cards will become invalid.

You had only three years time. What a pressing hurry

My kbank chip debit will only now work in kbank machines as is rejected by all others. Odd.

Yes odd.

Bangkok Bank and SCB work in other ATMs without a glitch.

Not sure whether I have with the KBank card.

Exact handling of PIN entry might vary.

 

Contact your branch.

They do use the six digit pin that other banks use for chip cards?

Yes.

It has just happened in the last 2 weeks and is very odd. It may be a glitch and could be corrected now, but here certainly was a problem. I will try again today to see if can do.

For a time Tesco Lotus card reader rejected kbank's new 6-PIN debit card as "incorrect." Now it doesn't.

Krungsri gives time to december 2019 for changing.

 

The wife had to go and change her PIN to a six number job. My aussie cards are still working...for now.

The banks should replace for free until the end of 2019, it's not a big deal to change, as long as you remember your passport.

What?  Bangkok Bank cards work in any ATM set up for 6 digit pin and almost all are.  Where there is an issue is point of sale using UnionPay branded cards as it seems merchants accepting is a fraction of those taking Visa or MasterCard.
