I had assumed there must be until you wrote that - anybody know for sure? Also what about the multiple 1000's or more of households that do the same.............

Please explain how the "details" in the OP make you come to that conclusion?

Yes it is - but depending on how much it is you may have TEDA which mean you are liable to pay nothing anyhow. Theoretically if you have already paid some tax you are supposed to be able to offset that as a credit - except there does not appear to be a standard way to do that....... If you haven't seen it I suggest you may want to read the the first few pages here which shows you the allowances that can be claimed. Maybe because they are automatically applying the next increase even though you may not be due it - have a look in the Home Country forum and a thread about people trying to stop HMRC adding the increase even though their payments are frozen.

Where have you been for the last 18 months.....literally 1000's of comments with many about the UK DTA and what is covered and what isn't across multiple tax threads The UK/Thai DTA states that Government pensions can only be taxed in the UK. By govt. that means civil service/armed forces and a few others but not the state pension or private pensions. So no, it only excludes government pensions. It is easier to see it in the digest - which itself has been posted multiple times..... https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/710099/DT_Digest_April_2018.pdf Go to page 34 and Thailand and read point 4 on the far right.

Why not open before you leave? Which bank are you looking at?

Well actually I bought a new Moto phone off Lazada in 2023?

I can only suggest you ring this guy and ask the price. I have them round monthly to spray in and out and then fog the garden - my plot is smaller than yours. Been using them for many years. D Work Pest Control Manager nickname Sax Tel 0863102603

Having reread this I am not convinced one will not have to go into Teams to use - it doesn't seem to exist as a Skype page at the moment..... https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/skype-is-retiring-in-may-2025-what-you-need-to-know-2a7d2501-427f-485e-8be0-2068a9f90472 I find the wording a little ambiguous........

Have a look here - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2025/02/28/the-next-chapter-moving-from-skype-to-microsoft-teams/ My guess is that after a short time they will "force" users from the web portal to Teams if they wan't to maintain their credit but that is just a guess on my part.

According to the mail received - Skype Dial Pad: After May 5, 2025, the Skype Dial Pad will be available to remaining paid users from the Skype web portal and Teams, where you will continue to be able to use your subscription or Skype Credits.

He hasn't actually claimed anything as they won't let him file - he has reported this about a zillion times ............

I think the OP is more about a solution to infrequent but potentially extended calls to UK landline numbers - think govt. and businesses. Certainly that is what I am looking for.

No neither have I. However just been looking at TrustPilot reviews on localphone - seems to be an awful lot of recent negative reviews........

Pretty much any and every UK government office for starters and many businesses..... A number of previous posters already mentioned this.

Perhaps one may presume that they don't have one ..........

Since he mentions "Repatriations" I would guess he means sending Baht out - which Wise cannot do. PS - I may be wrong......

Thanks

Not had to get for a couple of years so looking for a rec for somewhere ideally Soi Buakhow/ to north Pattaya? I just want to get prepared and don't want to take the time to go down to the place next to Immigration which is where I went in the past.

I do hope you meant 2023.......

Depends on your overall situation - you can still claim the personal allowance. However it would still count towards your total income. Dividend income - same answer. If you are remitting into Thailand and stay here more than 179 days in a calendar year, again depending on amounts, you may be liable to Thai tax to which you may be able to apply a credit from UK taxes paid except that this is all so new the mechanism to do that does not seem to be in place or clearly understood yet.......

I had thought better of you but recently you have posted a couple of videos without any explanation. The headline is attention grabbing but it never actually says how they calculate this supposed "cut". The video is a complete waste of time to watch as just talks about stuff you can think about in the most general terms. How old is it - I ask as the amount of a full pension quoted after nearly 3 minutes or so is incorrect as of today?

Unless I am missing something whether you have an ONT or simply get them to put the current modem/router in bridge mode you get the same effect? If you want the ONT change your package to CYOD as per the web site - https://www.true.th/en/trueonline/package-types/true-gigatex-pro-cyod/

Subject is already running in the Home Country forum - Suggest you have a read.......

he posted sometime within the last coupe of weeks - not under the name @rooster59 Just found it -

There is a "cocktail" lounge on LK...............? So which is it........
