fangless Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 FYI there are now no ATMs inside or near PANTIP Plaza. The last one which was near the car park entrance has beeb removed as of course have the Bangkok Bank Machines. I belive the nearest one is outside the Mini BigC near to Suriwong Bookshop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer2021 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 None at front on the main road? BTW What is happening at PTP these days? I thought all the action had moved to another mall? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Who cares. There is no business there. Even the computer repair shops are down to 2, possibly 3 shops now. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C is still there and for many in the area, like me, it is their main grocery shopping place!

wwest5829 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 The Bangkok Bank office closed? There was an ATM in front of their office. Have not been in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropposurfer Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Sadly Panthip is a mere shadow of its former frenetic Aladdins bizarre self. The makeover/sterilisation of some years back (when was that?) ruined the place for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost anyone with a smart phone will accept or pay 'scan' payments. My Bangkok Bank app certainly allows it, you can also pay using your bank app and their phone number.. Even my local market stalls accept it, Grab, Food Panda, Lex, etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not jacking, ATMs are disappearing all over the place because other payment methods are taking over. Home Mall removed all their ATMs as well, middle of 2021. I'm surprised you aren't still insisting on paying by cheque! Edited January 2, 2022 by BritManToo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
