glenbat Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 ive read of atm problems quite a lot in Pattaya, are they playing up today? Tried to take out 20k baht but rejected at 2 different machines, i know the money is there but wont give me any. Had problems before and had to phone the bank back home to confirm i am away but warned them beforehand this time. Also, are there machines on Koh Samet as im off there early in the morning for 3 days so need osme cash before then? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intumult Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Only times my Visa card failed was in Pattaya. I think the first Exchange booth near Marks Land on North Beach ( as you walk down from Marks Land in the direction of Walking street) was the one that caused the problems and my card use was frozen until I phoned the fraud section of the Bank.

colino Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 If your visa card is from a uk bank , i have had the same trouble even after telling them im in los , last time the halifax told me i could still use my card in shops or go in a bank to withdraw money , just coudnt use atms for 3days, mentel, they can stop a card in seconds but take 3 days to activate it , and it was a pain to get money from the thai bank first they couldnt understand why i could not use an atm then they said ok no problem , we need your passport and proof of where you live , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
