Kasikorn Bank Debit Cards

Post by sateeb »

Hi all

Does anyone know if the Visa Debit/ATM card that you get when you open an account can be used around the world? I may have to travel to Singapore and China soon and was wondering if you can pay hotel bills etc with this card as they don't have your name embossed on it. I'm pretty sure you can but just would like some confirmation from someone who has travelled and used it.

Thanks.

I have one and the VISA only works in Thailand, in my experience. Tried it in Canada and Taiwan, no go.

Hi Sateeb. I have a K-bank debit card, I haven't tried to pay bills with it, but I have successfully used it in ATM's in Cambodia and Australia.

I have also a K-bank debit card, but I cannot use ATM's in other countries. It seems, that not all debit cards are the same.
