Thread: Government Savings Bank

Went to open bank account today for son in Ubon.

The clerk advises us to open in Yasothon, because everytime son wants to use ATM, he will be charged 30 baht.

Though if he opens in Yaso he want be charged, is this normal practice.?

Yes. But heard they are supposed to be doing away with this provincial rip off scheme.

Clerk is right. May have changed but was 15 baht per transaction outside province.

Thanks,just weird he has a Bangkok bank account,but they don't charge.

^ What province is his BKK branch situated?

YASOTHON

So there you go then.

Been that way since forever.

Most banks are 15thb for out of province ATMs.

I think K-Bank has no charge for the first 2 times each month.


Always been like that.

Take a look at his bank book. They will show all charges.
