I logged into their crappy excuse for a website the other night and noticed it now suggests using the app Actually, I asked that very question in SCB ( Pattaya Klang) branch jusv2 days ago. A manager told me that they are keeping both the website and App. Of course she may not have been informed herself ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl sees all Posted March 10, 2023 Author Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) I don't know if it has anything to do with the ending of NetBank Services, but the queues at the Krung Thai bank in Bang Dung are enormous. Went there in the week and at 7-45 in the morning there must have been 200 people. When I passed at 8-30 the crowd had grown to over 300 I reckon. A lot of the 'early-birds' had been given a chair directly in front of the bank. Those turning up after 7am had to stand.

Maybe something to do with the holiday, and it being first of month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see similar lines at other KrungThai Bank branches during the first week of each month. As KrungThai Bank is government owned it is the bank used when applying for/receiving govt benefit payments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually only see queues like this at the 'farmers bank'. The volume of people at the KrungThai bank were much more than I've seen before. So many people that the traffic had to take extra care. I heard a couple of 'toots' while I was snapping. There is a little bank tucked away down a side street in Ban Dung. I'm gonna visit and ask if they do internet banking; but not the dreaded 'APP' thing. Proper internet banking like they once did at KTB. I's situated in the only one-way street in the town that I know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried and failed miserably along with bank staff. I'm visiting Thailand for a month; I do not have a mobile number. After three visits to my Bangkok Bank branch (in Korat), and a side-step to procure an AIS sim-card, I was able to get the bank's assistance in setting up mBanking on my iPhone. Sigh. What I really wanted was iBanking, which I hope to use when I return to the USA. I was able to set up an account, but it was implied by the bank that I had to first set up mBanking. Whatever. TIT. P.S. I could have set up 10 online bank accounts in the USA within the time I wasted going to and from BB.

For many years I just used Bangkok Bank ibanking.....then around 2 years ago I decided to also start using their mobile mbanking. Downloaded the app, entered my ibanking User ID and password and I was into mbanking. Now I rarely use their ibanking....instead, use their mbanking over 95% of the time....but I live in Thailand and don't have to worry about whether mbanking will work outside of Thailand without a Thai SIM. As long as you have a User ID and password which I expect you had to have to begin using mbanking that same User ID and password "should" work for ibanking unless Bangkok Bank can now set their system to grant only mbanking but not allow ibanking (or vice versa).

Sadly, that's what SCB is doing - closing their "SCB Easy" online portal and forcing customers on to m-banking App. I wouldn't be surprised if Bangkok Bank IS doing the same.

This means that no more access via laptop and only mobile phone? I have an SCB account but never received this info, to my knowledge. Also very possible they sent it to me but I didn't read it. I'm very surprised at this move by banks as navigating important stuff from a phone is just plain silly. We do it out of necessity when out and about but it's hardly a replacement for a home computer/laptop. Yet another reason to dislike banks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl sees all Posted June 23, 2023 Author Share Posted June 23, 2023 I dumped KrungThai because they went all mobile. Got hooked up with Kazikorn internet banking; with a struggle. This is not good news about SCB. How long before Kazikorn follow. All getting ready for the cashless era. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it a bit baffling, frankly. Hopefully, I just need to get used to doing it on the phone and no big deal. I'm more comfortable on the laptop doing all this stuff, however. I'm sure it's about saving money and not security. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubber Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Well, looks like KTB have moved the goalposts again. For transfers of 50,000B or more you now need facial recognition. Same for a daily limit of over 200,000B. Has anyone tried this or had any success? I'll go to the bank and try whenever it stops raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
