Dmaxdan Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I'm guessing he was suffering for withdrawal and I don't mean money from the bank... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokerface1 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I recon he was making a statement on behalf everyone who has ever been mucked around by a bank. Perhaps displaying the collective rage syndrome that he just couldn't control. I'm sure there are many who have felt like doing something similar at one time or another. However we at least have brushed it off having become accustomed to this poor standard of doing business. I'll make a note to send him a file in a birthday cake and some Prozac to calm him down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post grain Posted June 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2022 Sounds drug induced to me. I went to Pai once and it looked to me like the sort of place where a heap of drugs are available. This dude was probably off his rocker on shrooms or acid. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post IamNoone88 Posted June 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2022 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. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillageIdiot Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Banks can make you mad at times... in this case it was crazy-mad, not angry-mad. Nevertheless, he deserves to be locked up for awhile. Send him down to the slammer in Kanchanaburi and put him in a cell with Shane Looker. He could teach Looker a thing or two about rocks and how useful they are for weighing down suitcases to keep them from rising to the surface of the water and ruining your holiday.

But, I have no sympathy for banks, insurance companies and alot of large corporations. None. Many are not responsible citizens. And there are likely alot of others who do not like them either. Apparently. Glad it wasn't me! So just use cash and don't sign any insurance contract. You are not forced to use their services. And any of this would still be no reason to smash up a bank. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Well, I have been almost there as well. Bangkok Bank's customer service is second to none in "non-existence" while the pre-dominantely female staff balance around on their high heels with their noses 90 degrees up. Absolute arrogance and racist treatment "you wait, he first" despite the queue numbering ........ I did not smash anything but took my entire business and personal finance banking needs elsewhere which was commented with "up to you".

Popular Post orchidfan Posted June 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2022 It was widely reported and personally experienced that BBL systems went "down" a few days ago. I understand that this included ATMs. I tried to do a transfer on the mobile app, but it didn't work until they got it fixed the next day. I've only ever been treated with the utmost respect and courtesy in dealing with them for over 15yrs......including getting a full refund of 18000 baht scammed from my account. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
