The poster said "the country" told Tesco Lotus. And I asked why would the government (the country) order Tesco Lotus to not accept a passport as ID? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example....before I had the app...I would use Kasikornbank.com to pay my electric bill. Use your bank account website. I can't vouch for all banks but it's likely they have a way to pay. If not...it wouldn't kill you to move into the 21st century with a cheapo phone (I usually buy last year's model and they all seem to work fine...never paif more than 5500 baht for a phone and you can find a lot cheaper0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaanbiker Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I've just changed banks because Bangkok bank with their <deleted>_y card isn't what I wanted. I went to SCB, one lady opened my account while the other lady put their phone application on my phone. Now I can pay all bills from my phone, save money on gas and a lot of time. Many people do not know how easy that is. We live in the 21st century and I'm really happy that I've got that now. With Bangkok Bank not possible how I wanted it. I can top up phones of all companies, pay water and electricity bills in only a minute. Please try that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to say , and others might have said before and others after , there are ATM machines in Lotus , take out a few Baht then go and pay the bill ! My electric bill gets paid every month at Lotus , I pay for any shopping then hand over the leckky bill , never every had a prob. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're here on long-term, I suggest you go for auto-debit from your bank account every month. I did that and the charge is either 0 baht to 10 baht depending on your bank What's the charge at Tesco? Save time and money and hassle..... The same goes for water bill.

Do you honestly think that because Tesco is mentioned as an example that it’s ONLY Tesco. Gimme a break! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect....I understand that for whatever reason you don't want a smartphone....but whatever reason that is puts you in the category of dinosaur heading towards extinction. Get a phone that can run apps...install the apps and be done with wasting your time and effort paying bills in person...life is too short mate...why make it harder ?
