Transferring Bank Account

[stament]

I want to transfer my bank account to a nearer branch of SCB.  Does anyone know the process involved in this?  Do I go to the new branch or the old one to instigate this?  Will I need a new ATM card?

 

Thanks

I did that some years ago with SCB.

 

I did it from the new branch.

 

There was a transfer charge as well as percentage charge of the amount transferred which pissed me off a little as they had not mentioned the percentage charge when I asked about the cost of transfer. 

 

You'll also have to buy a new ATM card.

You can not transfer your account to a new branch. If you want to change branches, you will have to open a new account at the new branch.

^^^^^^ Yep, you'll have to open a new bank account.

Just visit the new branch and they will do it for you. SCB allows you to transfer account to any branch.

I have done it several times, so I know first hand.

Just wondering... What are the benefits and/or the reasons for wanting to transfer a savings account from one SCB branch to another SCB branch within the same city? I understand wanting to, if one is moving to another city, but transferring an account for example, from Asoke to Phrom Phong, just 1 mile away, I don't understand the benefits and/or reasons for the transfer. Please enlighten me. Thanks.
