Why does Timo not consult with customers in advance about changing partners? The Customer does not agree to continue to use Timo’s account and close it. I am using Timo’s account but now Timo arbitrarily authorize my account to VPBank’s management irresponsibly.

In all TnC published and signed with customers, it says clearly that VPBank is the bank who legally provides and manages Timo services. VPBank will responsibly and continuously serve customers with their VPbankOnline and all other VPbank’s sales service networks like ATM, CDM…

I used Timo occassionally. If Timo changes to a new partner and authorize my account to VPBank’s management, I will set the account aside, no longer use and do not come to VPBank to close it, or will my account occurs a maintenance fee and I have come to VPBank branch to close it?

Your accounts are always powered by VPBank, and you should continue to use it especially your account number, credit card number… VPBank is open and serves all your requests. In case you want to close, you should ask VPBank for all your obligations and rights to make sure that you are happy and compliant to leave the bank.

I am a foreigner, I have returned to my homeland and not returning to Vietnam, but I have not closed my Timo account. Previously, when I asked about this issue, Timo answered that my account will not incur any charges, so it is not necessary to close it. However, will my account is authorized to VPBank’s management now which is charged for maintenance and what do I need to do to close my account?

Legally speaking to close your account you need to visit a VPBank Branch to do this in person. In addition, all your rights and obligations versus VPBank are to be legally processed especially when you are using overdraft and/or credit cards to be repaid.

Is there any way to close my Timo account without going to the VPBank Branch or if I transfer all my money, will my account be closed automatically?

Legally speaking to close your account you need to visit a VPBank Branch to do this in person. In addition, all your rights and obligations versus VPBank are to be legally processed especially when you are using overdraft and/or credit cards to be repaid.
