i don't want to get more weird, but this may have something to do with the government and the state of emergency. maybe the single gateway is being tested or some other control device. or more likely some key bank personal are sick and not at work. Bank IT. and the ATM people who refill and service ATMs. They are traveling all over in their cash mobiles.     

It could be the first.  If there is a curfew and more restrictions maybe a test to see if they can temporarily shut down

So, I bet at this point it is just some test or glitch.

Cash hoarding by panicky people is common in such situations. It is foolish.

Could not log in to my Bangkok Bank, but had no problem logging into Kasikorn.

 

I did some online banking bill pays via BKKB last night and everything was fine then. So whatever's going on must have started sometime overnight or into today.

the closest three ATM's to me are DOWN

 

Krungsri, TMB, Krungthai Bank

 

I am in Hua Hin.

 

 

What does "down" mean exactly?

 

The ATM screens are dark? Don't accept your PIN? Or just won't dispense any cash?

putting all the reports together, it appears to be a BKK bank problem or BKK bank cards in other ATMs.

 

 

i was using Bangkok Bank card with the three ATM's this morning. so maybe so.

too lazy now to go test SBC.

 

On a side note, when I quickly left the house just now to test the ATMs, my Thai neighbors all pointed and held up a mask like "where is yours?" also the six tourists i saw in the 5 minute period all had white masks and where going to the pharmacy. First time I have left the house in two weeks without my mask.

Just to confirm, is anyone having problems other than BKK bank online or BKK bank cards in BKK and other ATMs ??

March 25, 2020 at 10:45AM. Wife just made an ATM withdrawal at a krungsri machine on Khao Noi. So they are working.

 

If machines out of cash they will not dispense, but you should still get a message.

Not from my end here in Sathon, KBank works, and so does my SCB account. Both at the ATM and on-line as well as the smart app...

Maybe they are checking via the camera in the ATM, no mask no money

At the ATM outside a local branch office, this morning, I got the ‘communication error’ message on the screen twice, but at the third attempt it worked properly.

Bangkok Bank was a problem (mobile APP).

Timeouts, error msgs.

But SCB and Kasikorn looked fine.

 

Sidenote: PEA app (electricity) dead.

Just read that both PEA and MEA online services crashed due to overload.

 

Last Friday I milked two ATMs.

Better safe than sorry.

What ever your on, i want some.????????????

[longball53098]

I just did a FCD to Baht account transfer from my BBL accounts using ibanking,,,,,,,,,,fast and normal,,,,,,,,,,less than 5 minutes ago

[KhunBENQ]

Thinking...

Is there a hoarding stampede? Anyone knows?

Supermarkets overrun?

Too many online/cashless payments?

[KhunKenAP]

Update. Wife just came back and said all other ATM's, around our area were closed. Guess we were lucky to get ours. It is a case of "out of cash" in the machines. Hopefully will be replenished soon.

The PEA app, 10:59

An article in Thai confirmed the crash because of some refund action.
Seems millions now rush to get their refund. Brilliant timing.
