As a spin-off of Kermo's topic...
Is there an option for Shinhan Bank users to transfer money online? |

There's a link for personal online banking: http://www.shinhan.com/en/index.jsp
And there's a call centre # at 1577-8000 but I don't know if they'll have any English speakers.
My bank dude told me if I come in with my work contract, alien card and passport they can set me up to transfer money to overseas from the ATM, which is cool. |

Is there an option in English on the ATM for transfers? I have never noticed it when ever I withdraw money. |

I asked about it repeatedly, usually once or twice on my monthly visits. I usually get "waegukin opso" with the whole wrist crossed thing.
I'm going to a new branch now, starting this month... maybe they'll know. I hate doing it manually because it takes two weeks and half the time the money gets sent back. I also hate filling out the same twenty minute long forms every time I want to send money, and I hate "taking a number". |

At Shinhan? I used to bank at the store in Daechi-dong, and they spoke English well, and the money would be in my account in the US in a day. Also, if you fill out one form, they keep it and replicate it each time you come in, with an obvious change of date and amount of money, if you need it. |

I'm talking about a branch in Pyeongchon (Shinhan). I made a few posts about it awhile back--once they misplaced W1,000,000 of mine which was meant to be transferred and when I confronted the teller about it she just said "sorry--we don't have it, we lost it--I don't know" and motioned to the next customer. They seemed so incompetant.
But yes, I'm going to a new branch now. I did a transfer and filled out the forms, so depending on how long it takes and if they don't screw it up / not take it easier for me next time, then I'll stay at Shinhan. |
