scubascuba3 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) kasikorn and Krungsri both easy can put in account details and telephone number and away you go, app installs. Bangkok Bank you need a new ID so have to go to a branch, 30 mins later done, but not possible if abroad? Also, BB always seem to be short staffed. One person working, in no rush, chatting, while several customers patiently wait, I left went to another branch Edited October 19, 2023 by scubascuba3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) New phone, unchanged phone number? Wish I could remember how I did it. But I didn't need to visit the branch. Was it with using the debit card number? And the PIN that I use is identical with the ATM PIN. Edited October 19, 2023 by KhunBENQ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Yeah ^^^, I installed on a new phone (same number) with no issues whatever, do ensure you have the latest version of the App. I think I used my online banking details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Teavee Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Changed phone just before Xmas & got the app installed/working with details (needed to get a reminder of my Customer Number & set-up a new Pin number, It was a 4 digit Pin not my usual 6 digit pin number) from the ATM. Things could have changed with the new App version, especially as they've added the facial recognition part to it so clearly updated the security.

aublumberg Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Same issue here, new iPhone. Kasikorn, SCB, UOB no worries and works fine to register on new phone. Bangkok Bank app big drama.

I've changed phones with Bangkok Bank before and I simply logged in on the new phone using my (existing) User ID. I think they sent an OTP by SMS to validate, but that was it, no visit to the branch required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that was the case for me. I only had the account for a year and never signed up for the iBanking (browser based online banking) account because the app is just fine. But without the iBanking account (which is the first option in the mobile app registration screen I posted above), it doesn't work. So last weekend I went to the branch and they explained to me that I can actually do it myself at their ATM, there's an option to register for iBanking account. It gives you a temporary ID (some x long digit number) and you set a 4 digit password. Then you can use that to activate the mobile app, and you can use iBanking where you can change the password to something more complex and also change the random digit string to a new user name. So strictly speaking 'branch' visit (with associated waiting time) not needed, can do self-service at an ATM. But it requires obviously that (a) you're in the country and (b) you still have the same mobile number that they have on record for your account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why your experience and mine seems to have been different is that I already had a User ID. I tried to figure out why you didn't have one at the time you switched phones, which might help explain why you had to go to the branch. I don't think the procedure has changed recently, but for what it's worth, the last time I moved the Bangkok Bank app to a new phone was in March.

QuantumQuandry Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) Can confirm. Just got a new phone 2 weeks ago. Same sim, same number, even ported over the app for Bangkok Bank. Had to go in to branch, bring my ATM card, they went outside with me to ATM, did some stuff there, came back in, more paperwork. They were quite nice about it but yeah, took a good 20 minutes or so. The app HAS an option to do it by providing info about your ATM. But even after I provided it correctly, it gave an error and said to go to a branch or call a number or something along those lines. There was no directions that I saw, saying to actually go use an ATM and get a temporary PIN. Maybe that works but I wasn't aware of it.

digbeth Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 if you didn't set your own user ID, you can request one from their ATM, it's then good for that phone's installation, you can change it to your own username and for the next installation on another phone you won't need to visit ATM or branch, providing you remembered your details 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
