You tap “confirm” on your banking app, and 31,000 baht disappears into a stranger’s account because one digit of the account number was wrong. It happens every day in Thailand, to Thais and to expats paying rent, sending money to a spouse, or settling a builder’s invoice. For years, banks routinely told the sender it was their problem: “we cannot reverse the transfer, contact the account holder yourself.” A recent Supreme Court<\/a> decision, Dika No. 8557\/2568<\/strong>, changes that conversation. The Court held that a bank must return money mistakenly transferred into a stranger’s account, where the funds had been frozen and the account holder never came forward, and that a bank cannot simply shrug and leave the victim to chase an unreachable stranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
