Does anyone know if there is a Bangkok bank ATM at Donsak Pier?

[finy]

I jumped on a bus without realizing it was going straight to the pier.

 

Dont think I can use my Bangkok Bank chip card at other atms.

 

cheers

That used to be the case from my own experience but that has changed and my card is now usable on all ATMs

Yes, you can.... if it is not your home area then there will be small charges. Even if it is, some will still charge.

Managed to have a few hundred left over after buying my ticket, so should be okay.

 

only trouble is it's with Raja going to Lipa Noi pier.

 

do they still have shared songthaews leaving from there? Info online is scarce.

You've probably arrived on Samui by now and found out the answer is yes:

 

As posted here... they all provide the service:

1) you can use any ATM machine, the withdrawal costs might differ
2) the only BKK Bank ATM in Don Sak is at GPS: 9.320452, 99.735919
3) you might want to withdraw money on Samui island with more choices:
3.1) GPS: 9.538080, 99.935872, just when you get off the ferry at the Nathon pier turn left into Road 4169, less than 400 metres

Good luck ;-)

I'm sure there is.I will give you A tip.I have been going to Thailand for nearly 50 years.I always have A few thousand baht on me at all times.That way I never think much about ATM machines.

I may be a bit of a coward, but I tend to flee the ATM machines in Thailand like the plague!!....To many issues of skimming, hidden fees etc...and such issues also occur in many western nations so called safe havens like Switzerland or Monaco.

 

I prefer to bring enough cash from Europe for the duration of the sojourn, deposit it once arrived, and withdraw at the counter...

 

Of course the ATM's have no issues, other then some "misunderstandings", but why take the chance. IMHO.
