Thai Bank Debit Cards for overseas online purchases.
Thai Bank Debit Cards for overseas online purchases.
My wife and some of our staff say that they cannot use Thai Bank Debit Cards for overseas online purchases. Yet their banks says they can. Anyone experiencing this problem? If you can, can you mention your bank's name?

I have a Kasikorn "Web Card" which acts as a credit card but is in fact a debit card. Works fine overseas online purchases.

Can you use the card for local debit purchases? I recently acquired a visa debit card from Bangkok bank which would not work for any visa debit purchases and worked only as an ATM card. What I didn't realize was that you had to register the card as a debit card before you could use it or purchases. Once I did this I had no problems using the card both locally or overseas.
Security is a big issue these days and you need to go though a number of hoops to do anything with a card be it a debit or credit card

If the ATM card has the Visa symbol it can be used locally as a debit card, however I would advise against this due to the increased risk of fraud. You are never very far away from an ATM.
With K Bank I get an SMS on my mobile every time my card is used.
