It's as simple as picking up the phone and dialing the number, which is easy to remember: 1333 or (66) 0-2645-5555.
 
It's very simple and efficient. You can either speak to a Customer Service Representative, who will take you through the required procedure, or you can print the Bualuang Phone Instruction Guide and use the automated service.

You can perform a number of banking transactions over the phone and get personalized service to find out anything you need to know about Bangkok Bank's products and services.
 
You can transfer money between accounts that are connected to the same ATM card, get a balance for any of your accounts, pay bills, obtain a two-month transaction record, get details of your transactions, find out interest and foreign exchange rates, get information about banking services or cancel your Bangkok Bank ATM, debit or credit cards.
 
You can call any hour of the day or night. It is a 24-hour, seven day a week service.
 
We use very modern technology, so it won't take long at all. As soon as you have entered your card number and PIN to verify yourself, you can choose to process your transactions via the automated system or with a Customer Service Representative who will be able to access your account information and give you prompt service. You will be able to carry out simple transactions within a few minutes.
 
Your account information is always secure as long as you keep your PIN number confidential, as recommended by the Bank. Our Customer Service Representatives cannot see your PIN because they transfer your call to the automated service where you enter your code from your touch-tone phone and it registers directly into the Bank's mainframe computer.

As an extra precaution, Bangkok Bank has taken measures to protect your account so that if the wrong PIN is entered three times consecutively, the system will disable your card. To reactivate your card you need to go to an ATM and enter the valid PIN.  However, if the wrong PIN is entered at the ATM, then your card will be confiscated automatically. When this occurs, Bualuang Phone Services will be unavailable for that ATM or Be 1st card, so you will need to apply for a new one.
 
7. How do I pay bills through Bualuang Phone services?
First, check the invoice of the bill you are paying to see if you can pay through Bualuang Phone. You can find the list of companies that accept payment via Bualuang Phone by clicking here or by looking on the back of your bill. Then, have your ATM card in front of you and dial 1333 or (66) 0-2645-5555. You can choose to use the services via the automated system or Customer Service Representatives.

8. How do I call Bualuang Phone from the provinces?
You can still call 1333 from the provinces. If you are calling from a province whose area code is the same as any of the 10 provinces we have listed, you can take advantage of Bualuang Phone for the price of a local phone call. However, if you are calling from another province not on the list, your call will be charged at the regular rate to Bangkok.

Bangkok Bank does not charge any fees for you to use Bualuang Phone. However, there are small fees attached to utility bill payment services.

10. Does it cost anything to transfer funds between my accounts or to a third-party account?
Fees are only charged for inter-region fund transfers. We charge 20 Bt per transaction and an additional fee of 10 Bt for every 10,000 Bt, or part thereof, that is transferred.

11. Does the “Send Me” service cost anything?
The bank will deduct a fee from the account you have specified at the moment of request. The fee will depend on the type of information requested and the delivery method.
