Well your comprehension of that article is different to mine. There is nothing there that says the UK govt. wants them to close expat accounts. In fact I think there was an earlier link in this thread where someone stated that it is not the law but individual bank policy.

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/thailand-tax-treaties Still seems to show 1981........

And exactly which "people" would they be............

They play in 6 balls...... Out of curiosity how long is the round on average? Thanks for the info but I won't even normally play in a 5 ball let alone a 6 especially where everything has to be putted out.

Agreed but to add to my comment above I think most people also don't want to think about it. The TV series Rabbit Hole with Kiether Sutherland was very relevant in this sense and portrayed a view and use of data that most people I think would be horrified to know that we could be close to already.

Unfortunately I think most people just don't care.

Yet a month ago in another thread you said this at the end - This was from the start of the same post. I'm sure one of those planet names must be Uranus................ Or I guess a month is a long time in technology...........

You asked this question 3 years ago - here's the link. Did you try either of the names mentioned?

Well either I missed it or context but either way it's sad.

Disappointed in you transam. Taking pleasure out of others potential misfortune. Especially as I don't particularly remember "chaps gloating".......... I partly agree with @PETERTHEEATER that it is probably more directed at businesses rather than individuals.

I know you said usually but unfortunately I don't think I would be very tolerant if I found any kind of poisonous creature in or around where I lived.......

Anybody else read the linked article and see this at the end So a "draft" is going to take 4 years........just in time for the next election?

According to the report I read the pilot set its automatic pilot before ejecting. Did he set it for a particular spot or to just fly on.........could it have crashed on buildings or a road?

Yes I find the statement "being registered as non-resident for tax" in the UK slightly disingenuous as you still pay tax on most UK generated income. The only way to avoid on a private pension would have been to move offshore in some way but that comes with it's own set of costs and issues. The other issue is that in the DTA with Thailand both state and private pensions are not included (govt/civil service are) which in theory could lead to double taxation of said income....... At least as a UK citizen you get to keep the PA if you want to.

Yes I was looking for a reference to a UK company as well. Interestingly the words "UK" are not used in the Thaiger headline (or not anymore?) so why did AN add it...........

I think this is the 'official' Thai GSD site - http://gsd.in.th/en Has a facebook link etc on the page. There is a very well established breeder in Pattaya with great facilities who used to also have gsd shows where pedigree gsds came from all over Thailand to compete. Just did a quick search and found this link to a previous thread -

Then you have never had the experience of renting. If you had then you would know the types of people that try to rent who then want to bring in 3 or 4 others to spread the cost - making the rental into an HMO which brings in a whole raft of other regulations to which you may not be able to comply. If as a renter you cannot prove the income required to fund the rent and live why would a landlord want to rent to you.........This is as true of Thailand as of the UK. It may be easier to remove people here than in the UK but most security deposits are unlikely to cover potential damages especially on cheaper rentals.

Not sure why many posters bang on about this when the central bank rate in the UK and the US is over 5% - ECB just raised to 4% and no idea what Australia is. Compare that to Thailand.......I believe that's only 2.25%. Banks are not charities.

5 rooms Try this thread although not the original notification -

Why would you want to use the same pin - have you never heard the advice about not using the same password on multiple sites...... You only normally have to use mobile data for the initial set up with the correct sim card - number already registered to your account. After that you should be able to use on wi fi including taking the sim card out and not having it in the phone - which is what I do with SCB app. The app may also be registering the IMEI no. of the phone as a further check - not sure on that.

L&H fixed account I never used to bother. No problem with Jomtien Immigration. Last couple of years they have suggested I make a deposit of 1k which they add to it........ Along with the fact that you can withdraw the money at any time (with loss of interest) make "fixed" accounts here very different to what we may have been used to in our home countries.

This is following SCB's lead so you may well be correct - in Thailand. I don't however see this happening in the UK in the near future.

From the link - Forgive my ignorance of CCTV set ups but why would you need so many servers?

I don't understand why 2 posters with such a prolific post count would want to make such baseless assumptions about 2 other posters especially as the first added a post to specifically cover it. No wonder people on here give up posting or responding.........

Especially so if he was a colonel.......... Likely a typo or AI embellishment...........
