Pianote 50 Report post Posted April 11, 2019 I got a new phone number today. I want to attach my chinese debit card (ccb) to wechat pay but I can't because my card is registered with my old phone number. I was told to go to the branch where I opened my debit card and change the number associated with my debit card account and I will be ok. Has any one tried this? I just dont want to go so far away only to be turned away. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, that's what you need to do. It worked for me. Take your passport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been sent back not only because I didn't have the old passport, but then again because I didn't bring the USB dongle (at least with my bank, some changes need to be done online with the dongle). And of course bring your phone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChTTay 1,007 Report post Posted April 11, 2019 Yes, I’ve done this at Bank of China. It depends on your luck on the day to how fast it is. When I changed my number it took about an hour and was a massive pain. The teller I had didn’t really know what to do. He also kept asking for random info I didn’t remember. Like I had an account in another city (not the same one that I was changing the number for) and he asking for that address. Madness. I went to a different branch to change my address and it was seamless. In and out within 10 minutes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
