Internet banking on Linux: Anyone know a bank in Thailand that supports this?

Featured Replies

Hi Folks,

 

As you know, I am now moving to total Linux in my Life.

 

So, which banks in Thailand support Internet Banking on Linux?

 

I will move to any bank which can provide me support for Internet Banking on Linux.

 

Any thoughts?

 

I know that Linus would approve.

I know that Richard Stallman would approve.

It is not fair that Banking Apps do not, in the majority, support Unix.

 

What true craziness!

 

There must be a bank in Thailand that supports the up and coming Linux OS!

 

I no longer have access to either Windows nor Apple.

 

Therefore, which banks in Thailand support Linux?

 

I am ready to move.....today or tomorrow.

 

I believe in Linux.

 

I believe in opensource, unless it's shared with the CCP.

 

Regards,

Gamma

 

 

NOTE:  I'M on the MOVE.....  No Windows, and, No Apple for me......EVER AGAIN!

 

 

This is not a Joke post.

 

I am NEVER going back.

 

It's LINUX and Linus Kernel.....ALL THE WAY.....from now until Eternity.......for me....

 

This is NOT a Joke.

  • Okay can we request for the thread to be closed now, then?

  • IMO the OP is confused.   Linux is an operating system. One connects to a bank through a browser such as Firefox or Chrome. A pox on Internet Explorer, or whatever Microsoft calls it now.

  • Websites are designed to support browsers, not operating systems.

Eminently fair. FreeBSD, for example, derived from Unix, has an infinitesimal market share. It doesn't run on phones. But iOS is also derived from Unix and runs banking apps just fine.

 

I detect true craziness here, but not on the part of the banks.

Android is a Linux variant and also runs banking apps. Linux is not a fork or a derivative of Unix.

 

Most if not all banks have apps for Android. On the desktop, the banks offer online banking via web browsers, regardless of OS. So you may login to your bank's online banking facility using Firefox or Chromium running under FreeBSD, if you wish.

Yes.

Correct.

But, the bank app running Chrome on Windows is almost impossible to set up.

 

A Thai bank app for computer, and not for phone.

 

 

I don't understand what you want.

 

AFAIK, for desktop/laptop computers, no banks use anything other than a browser to interface to their internet banking service that resides on the mainframe/server(s) in their data center.

 

The browser only handles the interface to the user and does none of the processing required to perform any banking function.  All the logic processing, input verification and security processing is done on the server.

 

Therefor, there are no desktop/laptop banking applications.  The browser merely fulfills its role of formatting and displaying the information it receives (as html) from the banking application over the data connection to the bank's data center.

I run BKK Bank, K Bank and UOB on chrome.

 

Was easy to get running once I-banking was registered with the respective banks but I log into a web page... not an App.

I answer not only for his benefit but for others that may read this thread.  I'm surprised he has the question he raised in this thread.  I thought he had a better understanding of computers than he displayed here.

So, I have been thinking of running an Android phone app using VM ware on my Linux boxes.

 

This way, I can get rid of the KBank Chrome app.

 

And, I can run the Android Banking app for KBank using an Android Emulator.

 

NOW DO YOU SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????

 

This is what I want.

 

BUT....I already tried it....and....

 

No Work, as the Thais say.

 

((Everything was working FINE, until KBank stopped supporting the OS on my NOTE4....  YOU SEE????????????????????)

 

I will NOT buy an upgrade from Samsung, yet.....

 

And, the KBank Browser app is too difficult to set up.

 

So, I was thinking.....  Just run a higher level of the Android OS on my computer.

Now do you see my quandary?????

 

 

Tks.

Not yet.....

 

But, maybe soon.

 

I still have a few years to go before dementia strikes me BIG TIME, like what has happened to Trump.

 

Anyway, I still want to use Marshmallow to do my banking at KBank, and other banks here.

 

Is this too much to ask??????

 

 

OR, I just want an easy-to-set-up Browser App, to be used with internet banking, same as I use with my American Express Account.

 

Is this too much to ask?

 

========

 

And, I want some RESPECT.....

 

Same as Rodney....

Also, if you do not know what I meant by running Android apps, such as the KBank Android internet banking app, on my Linux boxes.....

 

Here is what I meant.

 

But, will these work?

I think not, for a banking app.

Not according to my experience.....

 

image.png.cdb02d57381cd234fc82f233ebc1554b.png

 

I have no need to buy a new Android phone from Samsung if I can just solve this problem by running a more advanced Android OS, more advanced than marshmallow, on my Linux computers.....

 

Am I Crazy???????

 

NO.

I am NOT Crazy.

I just don't want to pay money to Samsung.....

That is all, folks....

In fact:  I just want to be able to run the newest Android phone apps on my Linux computers.

 

I do NOT need any new phones.

 

I just need an emulator that works, so that I can run everything on a virtual machine on my computers.

 

FING new phones?

 

I HATE THEM, actually....

 

I have no use for them.

 

And, I do not like paying for what I do not need.

By the way, just to flesh this out a bit:

 

My new BUDGET computer (about USD1500) has more than enough RAM (64GB) and CPU power to run several vms simultaneously without any noticeable degradation in performance.

 

So then, why not just not buy a phone, and why not just run the newest Android OS on my Linux computers?

 

Can this be done?

 

Probably not.

But, it SHOULD be able to be done.

 

This way, all of us can stop being slaves to companies such as Samsung and Apple, etc., etc., etc., 

 

That would be a perfect world.....IMHO....

 

I have no need for a fast smartphone in my life.....

 

I only have need for a very fast desktop....

 

You see???????????

By the way, in case you want to know:

 

I tried using a few Android emulators on Windows OS, a few months ago.

 

These programs are basically just lousy, and are designed, I guess, for Android gamers to test games on their Windows computers.

 

Total GARBAGE.

 

But, I have never tested Android OS emulators on Linux.

Still, I doubt they are ready for prime time, as a solid solution.

 

Am I wrong?

 

Or, am I demented?

Why should I have a separate "phone" unit sitting on my desk, anyway?

 

When I can have the same phone, and full function of the Android phone, using the most recent Android OS, in one of the windows on my computer?

 

Actually, there is NO REASON for this redundancy.

 

Utter stupidity, in fact!

[RANT] Linux is already dead, and still dying

Many people are saying:

By looking at the freshest 2024 Linux statistics, we find that 96.3% of the top 1,000,000 web servers use Linux

 

 

Your problem may arise from the fact that Samsung does not run Android.  They run their own version of Google's open sourced version of Android.

I am on Linux. I use Firefox to connect with Kasikorn Bank online. End of story.
