Does your Sim registration and Bank details Match?

[CharlieH]

Don't get caught out ! Time is running out to get your details correct as Thai banks begin checks and crackdown.

Would have been better if the banks messaged everyone to confirm either way

How about taking some responsibility? 

Sim card registration with your passport was supposedly insisted upon years ago. If you didn't do it you should be aware of it and unless hiding under a rock should be aware of the recent changes - unless you think you are going to remain "under the radar"........

i did mine years ago but still the bank should confirm to people either way if an issue

I seriously doubt it as I don't have a SIM in my name.  The SIMs we have for our phones from True are in my wife's name, not mine. That has to do with the fact they are somehow linked and my SIM only costs like 100 THB/mo.  No idea how the program works.  I bank with two different banks but only use SCB online after they ditched their web-base portal.  They haven't said anything about my SIM to date.  As of yesterday, everything is working fine.  If that changes, I guess I'll get a SIM in my name.  I'm not particularly worried about it.  If something breaks we'll make at trip to Big C and visit True and SCB to get it sorted out.  I'd just shut up and let the wife do the talking.  She's pretty assertive for a Thai gal.

If your SIM is registered in your wife's name, that's acceptable as per the rules UOB sent me. We went to the bank with my passport, marriage certificate, wife's ID & AIS bill and we signed some forms before April 25th. I opened accts with SCB & Bangkok Bank last year, and they must have made us sign the forms then because we never received any notices from them.

I think I'm going to remain under the radar!

Sim  linked to my bank accounts is not registered in my name, I don't do mobile banking.

I've had my bank accounts of a long time.  Wife has had those SIMs for a long time.  Like I said, I'll fix the problem in short order if it comes up.  Until then - we'll sail along as usual.

So you'll be just fine.  The whole subject is about mobile banking.

Kbank told me it wouldn't help if I wouldn't do mobile banking:

They still need a phone number to send me OTP whenever necessary - and this phone number has to have the same registration as my bank account.
