Like it says are the all blocked again ?

Used my SCB card at the money box yesterday.

Just used mine at scb tesco lotus all seemed fine

Went to the bank, lots of cards blocked, have no new card to make !! SCB service grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Yes. Had mine done today but what a annoyance on Christmas day.

I went to central and tried to buy some gifts, card blocked. So I went to scb on 2nd floor but couldn't do anything without a passbook and passport. After all that Rawai had no cards left and nether did tesco Chalong.

3 hours of bullshit and still didn't get to buy the gifts.

Hayek Chalong had about 10 other expats doing the same thing.

Anyone know the reason? Serious question....

Bank doing there bit to keep Thailand dry for the festive holidays.

Another reason to keep my American Bank Cards

Anyone know the reason? Serious question....

Maybe they're scared of a run on the bank? No cash left?

Anyone know the reason? Serious question....

They were sketchy on the details but they were saying skimmers. I don't believe that for a second.

I think it's more than that because they made me replace my bankbook also.

I suspect they were hacked.

SCB internet banking is working Ok. Just checked.

My internet banking was still functional yesterday but card blocked.

I was talking about their system. I think something was comprimised because way too many were affected.

Hayek branch had 10 other people doing the exact same thing.

When I tried at Rawai branch, they knew why I was there before I opened my mouth and just said go to Hayek as they had run out of cards to issue.

Damn North Koreans.

It says 'again' in the title, so I presume this has happened before?

Mrs SP says it was due to skimmers, at least that's what the bank told her.. She mentioned specifically the Rawai branch, but it sounds like it's affecting many branches.

Happened a couple of months ago.

I hope they will have new cards soon cause now no ATM 4 me

I don't understand how that branch was affected. They have security right next to the machine close to the door. Also the lotto sellers loitering.

I was told it was that branch affected so I won't be going back.

Security doesn't help there at all. I once tried to withdraw 15K. machine says "can't process the request, contact your bank". Went to another machine, same result. Checked online banking later and indeed 15K was taken out of account, but the machine did not spit out the bills. Contacted my bank, they contacted SCB and reported all transactions balanced. I complained and even said the security guard that was standing right there saw me, and I got denied. Point, is, that security guard is next to worthless and I'm out 15K, even though I repeatedly asked them to review security footage.

At the end of October, I wanted to use my HSBC Visa to make a cash withdrawal at the ATM SCB Rawai, but decided against it because of the maximum amount allowed at SCB.

2 weeks later my bank called me to know if I made several cash withdrawals totalling 50k TBH, which I did not, and was informed by the bank that the withdrawals were made in BKK.

After receiving the information, went to SCB Rawai to inform them that they have a problem with their ATM's but looks like that they have done the usual, NOTHING!

Did they make pay for a new card ?

And in the months before and weeks since end of October you did not use your HSBC Visa card somewhere else?

I used the card the same day at the bank of Ayudhya in Sai Yuan as I was able there to get the desired amount. Informed them too. The withdrawals in BKK were done at different SCB ATM's.

Since that day I did not use, did not loose or gave my card to someone. The card was still in my wallet until it was blocked by HSBC

That means the skimming could have been done at BoA as well, or anywhere else you used the card in the months before that.

It sometimes takes months for the gangs to use the skimmed cards.

I should add that the HSBC account is NOT in Thailand and the 50k fraud charges have not been charged by HSBC to my Visa account. Means I will not be charged with that.

Everything is possible, but did not use the card for about 6 months before that.

As the OP is about SCB ATM card, felt the urge the add my story, but sometimes there is no smoke without fire.

Yes, could be SCB, but not necessarily.

I had a card skimmed, and think it happened at the dentist when it was refused. Later the skimmed card was used for Facebook and other similar purchases. My bank refunded me, but I never found out for sure it happened at the dentist.

Your pointing finger towards SCB may be justified, but maybe not as well.

Yes, we will never know and it does not give me any nightmares. I still sleep very well.

Hope it was not the dentist in Chalong next to the footbridge and 7/11

No,different one, and I don't want to point any fingers without knowing for sure.

Did they make pay for a new card ?

No.

What I don't understand about it is that the bank book had to be changed also which leads me to believe it's a internal thing or their entire system was comprimised.

I don't buy it's a skimming issue.
