I did reply just now, but my post has vanished. Maybe a senior moment on my part😀

I would be interested to know where you get the figures of 300,000 westerners residing in Thailand.

Which post is that?

Another xenophobic post. Totally unnecessary.

I read those criticisms as well. But I focused on the positive reviews. There are always two sides to reviews. And anyway, that was last year. I posted this to let people know that the service was excellent.

@Isan FarangJust a couple of tips that you may or not be aware of: 1. Make sure that the document you provide with proof of address shows exactly the same address as your home address in Thailand. 2. If you are using a Thai debit/ credit card to pay, make sure that it is authorised by the bank for overseas payments. Payments are debited in UK. My neighbour had his payment declined by the bank and was informed by VFS. Fortunately he visited VFS to resubmit payment, after speaking with the bank to authorise payment, and all was well in the end.

Understood. I was extremely surprised to get the phone call after 9 days of submission. I had been told it would take 3/4 weeks.

Book online appointment. One trip to attend appointment. And a second trip to collect your passport. Hope that helps.

Just to inform anyone needing to renew their passports through VFS Chiang Mai. I submitted my passport application on 16th January and it arrived back today 25th. Excellent service at application point and amazingly quick return. Staff were very friendly, professional and helpful.

The purpose of my post was to inform others reading your statement and link, that this bank has different policies. I do not really wish to get into the questions you now pose above.

But not in the case of the GSB. They have railed against this and provide 100% limitless protection.

Pm sent to you.

How can they charge the owner 100% commission? That means the hotel gets nothing.

Progressive lenses are available in Thailand. My wife had them made through Diamond Eyes. See my earlier post. Or did you miss it because you weren't wearing your specs?🤣🤣

Yep. I rang Samsung care centre in bkk. And they told me to take it there. Good luck.

I took mine to Samsung on the moat and they repaired it in 15 minutes. Cost 54 baht!!

Many thanks. I have just switched across to Firefox and ublock enabled and added shortcut to .y screen. So far, no ads. So...moderator, could you close this thread please. Unless of course other users are having similar issues. Thank you all for your replies.

Understand. But do you have a particular app in mind?

Understand the principle. But it is really robbing Peter to pay Paul. And is probably a head line to try and impress the world. So it really is disinformation.

Thank you. I normally don't get any. Just this morning, these mini windows appeared with videos in them. Which adguard/ adlock do you recommend please?

Mmmm. Haven't made any changes as far as I know. I will monitor it. Thank you

How can GDP possibly rise with a 500 billion baht debt to raise the digital wallet?

Why are we now being invaded by pop up ads on this site?

Top C...... are renowned for their rip off prices. I recently was recommended to try Diamond eyes. What a complete difference. Titanium frames with bi focals, non scratch. Price 8500. Plus one year warranty on any defect on lens,( including scratches) and frames. Complete with members card with prescription embossed upon it. Top Charoen equivalent 27000 baht+ In addition: my wife needed specs and chose progressive lenses with scratch resistant. Top C ...price 33500 baht. Diamond eyes 13000. Same warranty and members card as mine.
