5 popular questions about WeChat

1. I just signed up for WeChat, why was it blocked? Why are you blocked even though you just signed up? It is possible that you have behaviors that WeChat deems untrustworthy, such as adding multiple friends. So if you are a new member, we recommend that you have a friend add you. 2. WeChat is blocked, what should I do? You can do the unlocking yourself directly from the app, which may require a friend to scan and verify your identity. However, if it fails, you will need to register again using a different phone number and it would be better if it is linked to an email address. However, if you want to use the old phone number, you need to contact WeChat Support in China directly, but we cannot guarantee that it will be successful.
3. Sir/Madam, please scan it for me. Many people may wonder who should scan to verify their identity for them and/or if they have their friends scan but it still doesn’t work, that’s because not everyone can scan. The person who will scan to verify their identity for you must have registered to use WeChat for at least 6 months and has never scanned for anyone beyond the specified time limit. WeChat specifies that we can verify our friends’ identities no more than 1 time/month, but no more than 2 times/6 months, and no more than 3 times/year. However, many times, the scan often fails, which may be because you have tried to unlock it many times but it didn’t work, which makes it even more suspicious. Or your account may be locked for a reason that it can’t be unlocked.
4. How do I receive money via WeChat? If you have a shop, this is easy. We have a WeChat Pay service for shops that can receive money into a Thai bank account. You must have a document to verify your identity that you have a shop or business. But if you are an individual, you must open a wallet like many wallets or wallet apps in Thailand. But for WeChat, this is a bit difficult. Because now, WeChat will allow new Wallet users to use it. You must verify your identity with a bank account or credit card opened in China only. And including depositing and withdrawing money in Wallet, you must do it through the linked account only. Otherwise, you cannot withdraw money.
5. Why can't I pay for purchases via WeChat? For those lucky ones who have a wallet or can use Wallet in WeChat, you are lucky because currently it is very difficult for foreigners to open!!! But, but, but, you cannot use it in stores in Thailand or other countries outside of China. For foreigners, you can only spend via Wallet in China. But stores abroad (including in Thailand) that accept payment via WeChat only allow Chinese people to use it.
