If your money doesn't come out within 20 seconds or so, then it ain't coming out no matter how long you wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiFelix Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I perfectly understand the man....I have been close to that on severaL occasions. Bangkok Bank have some crazy ideas/rules and some even crazier staff making them up. One of them is do you know if your ATM card expires or is faulty you must travel yourself in person the accounts home branch to get it replaced? Any other bank can replace no matter where you are. So imagine you have an a/c at BB in Silom and you go on holidays to Chiang Rai and lose your card, or it expires, you are up sh#t creek because you need to get back to Bangkok to do anything about it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveAustin Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 2 hours ago, IamNoone88 said: Each time I read an article such as this, I ask myself how often the British police have to deal with crazed Thai visitors in the UK, smashing up banks, fighting in the bars, murdering or throwing folks off of balconies or simply jumping off a tall building themselves or going berserk on drugs. Each time I come up with the same answer - NEVER. Honestly, I feel for the RTP having to deal the daily event of trouble caused by visitors to this country. He was Canadian. But I get your point, though bearing in mind that most Thais that travel overseas independently are typical well off and are of middle class stock and up. Also bearing in mind that crazed Thais carry on with stuff like this over here fairly routinely. Doesn’t take away from the fact that the guy is an ass and should be deported.

Kerryd Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 1 hour ago, Wytchend said: Any mention as to...............why? Gotta be a back story to this one? At the end of the video he says "I want my ****ing money. Give me my ****ing money Bangkok Bank." And no, he's not "French". For what ever reason, he's been on overstay since mid-April. From the sounds of it, he tried to get money from an ATM and it didn't work (for whatever reason). (No, Immigration doesn't put a "hold" on someone's bank account as soon as they are on overstay so don't bother speculating about that.) Could be his card expired and he didn't renew it - because they'd want to see his passport. My card was set to expire next month and every time I went to an ATM, as soon as I punched in my PIN I got a message across the screen (impossible to ignore) that my card was going to expire next month. As I had to go to the bank to get my annual bank letter, I took the time to also get a new card. No hassles and the bank letter only cost 100 baht, as per usual. No charge for the new ATM card and they gave me a choice of Mastercard or Union Pay (for the ATM system, not a credit card). As per usual though, they had to make a copy of my passport to attach to the paperwork. Could be a dozen reasons why he did what he did but the end result is, he'll sit in jail until he goes to court, he'll be fined for the damages and ordered deported (and blacklisted for the overstay) and then sit in jail until he can pay the fine and pay for a plane ticket home.

Polaky Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I can certainly sympathize with the guy, going into any of their branches is akin to going to a dentist for a root canal job, but to throw rocks and smash equipment is a nono, and the damage bill is outrageous.

Thunglom Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I know where he's coming from. I've had very frustrating confrontations with Thailand's CS. The problem is if they can't solve your problem "by the book" and it won't go away, they often just dig their feet in and refuse to do anything at all. At some point you either have to give up or try to point out they are using face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would create my own bank, make 100 billion, and show them!!!! but falang use rock...throw rock....mad mad mad mad falang. Pai......the one place nobody can say correctly.
