Bangkok 

I broke my nose years ago and it’s always bothered me, however recently it’s started blocking up and bleeding 

can anyone recommend a good nasal alignment doctor / hospital?

thanks

In the past I was always denied to open an account while on a tourist visa. However, lately I opened an account at Krung Thai bank without any problem with the tourist visa. It was the branch in Ekkmai intersection with Sukhumvit. Not sure if it was an exception or what but it worked.

Other than that, if you look at the websites of the big banks they have some products for big investors from abroad. I guess you'd need to ask for those specific products in that case and deposit a big amount. 

Just tried that branch now

“Cannot without work permit”

Which banks did you try?

Many Krungsri branches only require a 12 months rental contract.

SCB, GSB, UOB 

which thinking on, wasn’t the best choice.

In short Bangkok Bank.

 

Last year a few lads who I know came over and experienced similar issues, for a bank account to get their "Retirement Visa".  I was told by my accountant Bangkok Bank, they had a small catch. You had to "buy" their 12 month Health Insurance policy for 5,990Bt.

 

All the lads went to BB - easy 30 mins and they had a bank account.  PM me as I also know a contact in a bank who can do this for you, also they're excellent help in transferring large sums of money out of Thailand.  Good luck.

 

Thanks, I’ll try around Nana area

Hi, I’m on a Non-B multi. Have proof of condo address (electric bill, TrueVisions) and need to open an account for day to day use
no WP

i live in BKK near Sukhumvit.

tried A few places around Thong Lor and they said not without WP

where should I try?

thanks

Why do you want to do a 90 day report?

There is no need to do one now.

Future planning, I have 7 weeks left on my stamp and I like to plan ahead

On a multi entry B, no WP. Can I still do 90 day reporting?

if so what do I need to take?

never been to immigration as I’m a FIFO

cheers

In the end of last week they had only done ~80,000 tests in Thailand,which is a ridiculously low number when we're talking about a country with ~69 million people. The number of official cases can easily be at least 10 times higher. 

pointless speculation based on nothing whatsoever 

I’m on a Multi Entry B and usually leave the country every 2-3 weeks to go work in another country. So get 90 days every time I get back.

no work permit as I don’t work here 

My last entry stamp expires June 7th and visa is valid until December.

i would prefer not to go back to UK as COVID seems out of control there 

what are my options? I would normally do a visa run, but that seems unavailable

there have been, and are, reasonably priced flights available to the uk, all you have to look...

 

all star alliance airlines allow you to reschedule your flight for free, i know because i did.

 

The whole story is a load of bull <deleted>

nonsensical quotes and a non existent problem

You obviously dont have a clue do you? If this person is stranded here, he has to have a visa extension. In Thai immigration law you have to have empty pages in your passport, and also have 6 months left on your passport before it expires.. Comprendi dummy?

you don’t have to have empty pages in your passport according to “Thai immigration law” that’s untrue. They can stamp over old stamps

Why are you bringing up the 6 months lest on the passport? How is that relevant here? Who said that wasn’t the case?

He then said I can't get an extension wih a nearly full passport?

He can tho

If a passport does not have adequate blank pages for visa extentions, etc., it could have plenty to do with a great many things.

They just stamp over the old stamps at immigration and they don’t need any space for stamps to fly back to the UK or anywhere in the EU.

Trump says quarter of a million US citizens will die in the next 2 weeks in a best case scenario and distancing measures are adhered to. This is not hysteria. They don't shut down countries for no reason. Thailand won't be opening bars again anytime soon- expect November time for rules to begin to be relaxed at the very earliest. It will be many years before normality resumes.  

Mate, don’t start a sentence with “Trump says!”

try November 

Absolutely no chance, the economy can’t stand halt for that long and the infection figures are low and steady. 
 

that would be a massively disproportionate response 

pubs open again on May 1st???

Where did you see that the parks in Bangkok will be closed as of tomorrow.  From the paper that can not be named I saw something that denied a BMA Lockdown.

 

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) on Tuesday dismissed as untrue reports that it will announce a full lockdown and keep city residents at home in a bid to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus.

https://www.dailynews.co.th/bangkok/766385

They are all closed as of tomorrow 

such a same, what’s the risk when proper social distancing is maintained?
