add to that the fcukaround of having the card cancelled and having to organize a new one to get to you

I wouldn't risk the potential hassle of using a debit card over the counter in Thailand, and with credit cards eyeball from wallet to wallet.

What Thai banks do you folks have that doesn't give you a pin for their credit cards?

I've had SCB credit cards since 2004 and they've always had a pin, cards get replaced every 5 years. Card numbers and pin remains the same as before.
If a card is lost and they have to issue a new one (which will get a new card number), then they send the new pin code in a letter.

My K Bank one has a pin but its only needed for cash advance from an atn.

Mrs Jab gets a text alert each time her cc is used, maybe they should expand that to cover all cards and transactions.

I get an sms for every transaction on both my credit card and debit card.

You could have just gone to the ATM 10 metres away

Sorry but 15 kilometers either way to atm

So when you withdraw money from an ATM with them, where do you sign?

You do not withdraw money from a ATM with a credit card, very high interest rate approx 20%

Bangkok bank sends you a SMS for any transactions you do in under a minute usually, deposits, withdrawals and credit card purchases
When i used the SCB i regularly did not receive a credit card statement until the amount owing had already been deducted from my bank account
