kinyara Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I am with Krungsri and they also closed their branch at Avenue a few months ago. The consolidation continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Krungsri Buakhao is closing shortly or already closed, Kasikorn Buakhao looks like a refit but still closed, a bit 7 Eleven style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bbko Posted November 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2021 I don't know how those businesses in the Avenue survive, I've always thought they should convert the Ave into an entertainment complex, similar to Bangkok's Nana Plaza. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tongue in cheek comment? That idea was bouncing around pre-Covid by an Indian group and nicknamed Bollywood Plaza. Nightlife places were said to be leaving Walking St to go there. Of course nothing came of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchWrapSupreme Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Avenue, Villa? So Patts has one like Bangna, BKK? The one there just completed an expansion. Their Villa is kept buzzing with all the expats at the nearby pricey intl schools, who can't live without their pricey imports. "I daresay, are we out of the Cumberwumpton pudding again? Dispatch Noi the maid, forthwith." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) As written: Soi Buakhao closed (some rumor of refit?). This morning went to South Pattaya rd (next to Tukcom). Also looks closed (windows blind, some stuff behind the glass door)?!!! Could hardly believe it. Kasikorn seems to axe its staff. In my home district they have cut down staff drastically. Only two clerks left. ATMs in the region down from 50 to 15. Let people queue outside (Covid hysteric). Endless wait.

Leaver Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) Perhaps it's being turned into The KiK Agogo. (Kas-i-Korn) with the lighting in green and all the service staff wearing green and the dancers wearing green bikinis. Such an investment is as good as money in "the bank." ????

rott Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 That Kasikorn has not long re-opened. Was in Pattaya Tai branch a few weeks ago. Bummer. So till the one at Buakhao opens it's the one at Central or the Klang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinyara Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 6 minutes ago, The Hammer2021 said: No point...there's a branch at Central Festival Indeed, and they shifted my account a bit further up the road to Central Marina where there is also a branch. Who knows maybe I'll end up at Central Festival eventually judging by the morgue that is Marina, be a little bit more convenient location wise for me.

champers Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Kasikorn did not assign a new branch to me, said I could go where I wanted. I go to Klang anyway for convenience sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
