camerata Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I know there is a sub-branch of Kasikorn in lower Sukhumvit (at Landmark), but is there a branch in the Ploenchit area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camerata Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Come on mate, its only one more stop on the bts, a 7 min walk from Ploenchit. It's not the walk. I just don't like banks in the main tourist area. I've had very bad experiences with Bangkok Bank near Soi 12 over the years. Also the Landmark is a sub-branch so it may not have full facilities. I want a credit card, fixed deposit accounts, etc, that tourists wouldn't be interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerata Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Where exactly is the one at Chidlom? In Chidlom Road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam: The one at Nana looks full-serviced (yes they have a currency exchange on the outside for tourists) on the inside. I would say as much as the one on Asoke close to Phetburi Road.

camerata Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 UOB's counter has already moved out of there. I've never seen Kasikorn in Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
df358 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 There is a Kasikorn branch at the end of Soi Lang Suan, 10 min walk from Central Chitlom or 15B by motrcyc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerata Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 I just called Kasikorn and apparently there is a sub-branch on the 1st floor of Central Chidlom, although I've never seen it in all the years I've been going there. Also there's a branch at 93/1 Wireless Road, but I'm not sure how far down Wireless that would be. They told me it would take 16 days to get a credit card!

Not one to question a mod, but since you posted this 4 days ago, I could have walked to KBank's head office and back 30 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc2006 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Where exactly is the one at Chidlom? In Chidlom Road? Couldn't see one on either the Ploen Chit or Chidlom BTS maps -- http://picasaweb.google.com/acassidy/BTSMa...090085745249842 or http://picasaweb.google.com/acassidy/BTSMa...087148512799378 Actually surprised -- I live on Soi Langsuan and I'm surrounded by banks.

andyc2006 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Actually surprised -- I live on Soi Langsuan and I'm surrounded by banks. FYI, there's a Kasikorn @Langsuan Soi 6. That's a solid 10-minute hike from the Chitlom BTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerata Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 FYI, there's a Kasikorn @Langsuan Soi 6. That's a solid 10-minute hike from the Chitlom BTS. Right. Kasikorn lists the Langsuan branch under Patumwan district and the Wireless Road branch (near All Seasons) under Lumpini district. The only one listed as being in Ploenchit is the one at Central Chidlom, which turns out to be facing the car park in Soi Somkid, the tiny office that used to be a courier service. Open Saturday and Sunday, and open till 8pm, it's very convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
