  1. Considering the proliferation and use of QR codes here I wonder how long before we start reading stories about this here - https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/beatthescammers/article-11712823/Never-heard-QR-jacking-cynical-new-ruse-steal-cash.html I wasn't sure where to post this - banking/mobile or..... so settled for general. Although the original article is about the UK it points to a potential issue here.
  2. Maybe something new here. Just a bit more fuel for the fire......... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/columnists/article-11714171/10-awkward-questions-throw-EU-Rejoiner-corners-dinner-party.html
  3. Well received one 15 minutes ago. So has the newsletter moved to once a day only?
  4. Thursday received the early one but not the normal second one. Friday none at all one arrived mid afternoon but none in the morning and none so far today. Just me or is it a general issue?
  5. I am presuming they mean Central Festival........or not.....?
  6. I think you may find that voids and whether payment is due are up to the discretion of the relevant local authority. In my case I was unable to even get the single person discount during covid after my tenants left (as I foolishly told them it was unfurnished) and, even worse, if it had remained empty for more than a year 2years I would have had to then pay double....... In comparison a quick look online shows Glasgow offer up to 6 months "free" if tenants have left and the place is empty.
  7. For those particularly in Phuket is it easy to tell the difference between Russians and Kazakh's? I know next to nothing about Kazakhstan and was surprised at the relatively high numbers visiting Phuket. Is that normal for high season there?
  8. My question was actually a little tongue in cheek but I appreciate the clear and open reply
  9. I get this occasionally but it is only 3rd Party/cross site cookies which are disallowed in my browser. Please explain what improvements a "user" will get from allowing 3rd party cookies.........apart from not seeing this annoying pop up? And I am not using Safari.
  10. My outlook web mail was unresponsive for maybe 30 minutes yesterday and at the time down detector had no reports of the outage. So there was me running scans of my system................
  11. I think you will find that the implementation of CRS transcends the EU so that argument is a complete non starter IMHO.
  12. Never stopped them before........
  13. Last para from the linked article - Is there actually any realistic hope to the first part of the above?
  14. It would be interesting to know if they currently pay anything for hanging them off the power line poles - presumably to MEA or PEA?
  15. And what about the people who live in these areas............... The only cheap land is probably a long way out.........
  16. Is "around" a legal definition of time........... Can you give a citation for that...............?
  17. Finally. My gf has been worrying about this since Saturday or Sunday night when it was reported on Amarin 24 news (about the guy in the Thaiger article linked to earlier) but I had been unable to find any links. Surprised it took Asean now so long to pick it up......
  18. If the OP has no earned Thai income; does not remit earned income during current year and is not trying to offset anything against a specific country DTA why would he even need to consider filing a tax return in Thailand....... There may be a reason but @2009 certainly didn't give any info in his posts that suggests he wants to invite any closer scrutiny into his financial affairs whether warranted or not.
  19. You don't need to file it or register it anywhere special. Some people have successfully lodged one at an Amphur but there is no specific need to. Make sure your executor knows where to find it and or give them an original. If you want a Thai lawyer involved I am sure they will look after it as well....
  20. Well to the best of my knowledge that is completely wrong and there has been first hand posts in previous threads that would dispute that. Witnesses cannot be beneficiaries . You may want to ask for a second opinion.........
  21. What do you base that on? I know several people who have done probate in the UK for relatives and although not simple it did not require "legal"knowledge. My understanding is that Thailand may be different however I don't have any practical knowledge of that.
  22. From the linked article Although that was from the Phuket LTO boss I know for a fact it was done in Pattaya some years ago via at least one of the driving schools........Maybe it doesn't happen any more The only thing the students had to do then was turn up and have their photograph taken.....
  23. Did they not ban parking in front of Tree Town last year for a while even though probably the only place along there that is ok for parking.? Like many things here I notice that did not last long.
  24. Except that would take up even more of the road and reversing out into traffic can be messy......
  25. I haven't looked into this but how do you set that up. Simplistically how would the email system know when to send the mail - or does it need continual manual intervention to not send?
