NanLaew Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Further to Owain's comment, I would not use an internet cafe computer to do any secure transactions. However, if you have a laptop and have some essential software installed, you could use an internet cafe's connection to do your secure transactions.

12DrinkMore Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I would never use an internet cafe anywhere in the world to make a financial transaction. If I am travelling then I always take my laptop. Often in Thailand in the larger cities it is even possible to access a generous wireless network for free....

Addicted2Pattaya Posted February 1, 2009 Author Share Posted February 1, 2009 Thanks guys, I might try seeing if i can pay it early. I have never used an internet cafe before anywhere, so thought it would be rise to check. Thanks Again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerryd Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 If you know approx what the payment will be, you should be able to make a scheduled payment, or pre-payment at the bank before you go. If you're not sure, you can still make a payment of some kind, even if it means you'll have a "positive" balance on your c/c account. I've been trying to think about where there may be a secure place that you could do internet transactions from while on holidays. Scratching my head and thinking is just making the shiny spot bigger, but not giving me any answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamalaLove Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 How secure are cyber cafes in Thailand.I gotta pay my credit card bill next time Im in Thailand.

I think telephone banking is the best way to deal with large transactions when abroad, if your bank doesn't have that facility maybe you're with the wrong bank.
