Dolgure Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 1 more newbie question pls. Are there any banks here where I can keep my cash (without opening an account) and jewelry? I.e. the ones with safe deposit boxes? Hopefully you can recommend some located near TESCO Chaweng. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrilled Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Most likely have to open up an account.I always thought so anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) All safety deposit boxes and post boxes are occupied. You can always join the waiting list, in my SCB office nobody has given up their safety box for seven years now. No idea how long the line is for a post box, don't bother. I bought a safe instead. best chance is to monitor if there's a new bank office opening and ask there (with a big bribe) Edited July 15, 2012 by PoorSucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiud Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I rented a safety box at Tanachart Bank (but I stay in Koh Phangan). Difficult they will have one free but you can try in Samui. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolgure Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 If business is so hot why don't they open more new ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John 1 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 And how am I going to keep my jewelry on that account? With all respect mate I'm surprised you would ask this question, I would think if your are not a customer that means having an account, why would they give you access to a safety deposit box.

Could you pls check if they have one free now?

Because I'll pay for it as for any other service. Isn't that natural? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfinger Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) What is Natural on Samui?? (Do you really think, they need the amount for the Box you want to rent??) Sorry........ And for the Safety Box on KP, good Idea to put your jewelrys over there, so you can easily wear them on the Full Moon Partys.

Carlos Primeros Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 You can try the Thanachart Bank in Bangrak or Maenam. They have Safety deposit boxes. But I think before you can get one, you need to open an account with them. Thanachart Bank is the ex Siam City Bank with the orange colour in the logo. Maybe you are lucky and they still have an emptry box. But I am not sure. Good luck, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
