Has anyone that has received one of these mails decided to just ignore it ?

 

 

 

of course there is the head in the sand approach 

I've been to KBank yesterday for other purpose, no mention about CRS self-certification (that I've never filled).

I assume if it was an urgent requirement a notification would have showed up in their system.

Also received. I am Australian, all Thai banks will be requesting this. Easy to fill out. If an Australian tax resident, even if retired and living in Thailand, with no Thai income no need to have TIN. Tick no for the US questions. As our Australian Information Commission says we don't have to provide our TFN (Australian tax file number) to overseas entities then you just tick "C" saying your country does not mandate disclosure of your home TIN / TFN.

Assume!!!

 

Can I just say that if any of my banks sends me a form to complete that they think is important enough to send in the first place, and I don't return it, they usually threaten suspension of my account. UOB Thai does that every two years with certification of my investment account; Hargreaves Lansdowne does that yearly if I don't send them copies of my ID to prove who I am, EVERY YEAR (crazy sh *t); HSBC did that with KYC forms....and so on.

Same situation here

Hi mate. Tick box "C", which says your Government (Australia) does not mandate disclosure of your TFN tax file number.

Well if it was so important K bank would have sent a E-mail to EVERY customer......Not just a hodge podge sending of Emails to some people here and there....

 

And anyways Banks dont  just close accounts easily......Ok they may suspend  overdrawn accounts  etc......But closing.......Nope Never.......Closing is the very last step after many long years of repeated legal warnings........

The bank will have its criteria for who should receive the forms, of course they will not send it to Somchai and Nok who never had any interests outside Thailand and earns the average wage.

 

Perhaps they don't close accounts in Redwoodland but in the UK it's a regular occurence, especially if they know you don't live there and don't have financial interest or an address there.

There was a copy of an email from KBank earlier in this thread.  It said their email was going to anyone who hadn't already completed these forms, i.e. when opening their accounts.  I did, 2011 and 2024.  So I haven't had the mail nor do I expect it.

Well K bank could have just said if you have already filled out this BS paperwork then this Email does not apply to you......And not missed a single person if it was sent to everyone....

 

But no K bank says.....Lets send these Emails out real half azz.....To a few people here and there....

 

K bank sure seems to be sheepishly sending out these emails....

Perhaps you could offer K'Bank your services as a business efficiency consultant. That way, they'd win, because their service would have been improved. We would win also because you'd get your arze deported for working without a work permit and we wouldn't have to listen to your whinging any more.
