You said you have business. What bank do you use? I would deal with that bank. If they can't help you change banks.
We live in Angthong. I am retired. For years my wife and I dealt with Bangkok Bank. When Bank of America began charging a fee for foreign transactions I wanted to get a credit card in Thailand. Since I have no work permit and my wife and I have no income in Thailand Bangkok Bank refused to give us a credit card. I went to Kasikorn Bank and told them I wanted to get a credit card and would move my deposits to K-Bank. The application was first rejected for the same reasons as Bangkok Bank. The branch manager called the head office and said she knows and trusts me. The application was approved.
We still have 2 accounts at Bangkok Bank for transfers through Bangkok Bank in New York. We maintain a balance of 200 baht in each account. Every time a transfer comes in we immediately withdraw it and deposit it in K-Bank.

Fake or Real??? There is audio technology known as "Voice Printing". If they claim it is fake why not get it tested.

I am an American and a native speaker. By the way I don't know about "affect or effect" and never use "whom" except in a letter beginning "To whom it may concern". Until a Thai English teacher told me there are 12 tenses, I thought there were 3; yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
The purpose of language is communication. Unfortunately most of the children who finish high school in Thailand can't communicate in English. However, they do know grammar and structure.
I have been helping at the primary school near my home for many years. I could write a book about the failure of English education in Thailand, and how to improve it, but nobody wants to read it. But the children in our village can communicate. I'm proud of this.

Gambling at a funeral is a tradition the same as police asking for Chinese New Year's money.

My wife and I don't mind registration. We have nothing to hide. It protects us if the phone is lost or stolen.
By the way there was a prepaid plan with AIS that when you topped up 50 Baht or more it is good for one (1) year. It is no longer offered. However, if you have it you still can use it.

With the Thai government?
Yes - the US always supports a democratically elected government.
The US always supports a government whose policies are in the best interest of the US.

For your information, the following questions are a part of the DS-160 Visa Application:
Security and Background Information
Have you ever been arrested or convicted for any
offense or crime, even though subject of a pardon,
amnesty, or other similar action?
Have you ever been involved in, or do you seek to
engage in, money laundering?
Have you committed, ordered, incited, assisted, or
otherwise participated in extrajudicial killings, political
killings, or other acts of violence?
I wonder what answers were given?
Any "Yes" answer requires a detailed explanation.

According to the Distributor changes issue for the miracle whip products, the
products has been out of stock for almost a month now. The new lot wll
come in around May 20 at the new distributor company. I beleive that it will
be on shelf again next month. Since you live in Angthong, if you want to give
a call to the store to make sure they reserve the order for you when you
arrive, you may call and request for Ms. Napatsawan ( Foodland Laksi's
Customer Service) to reserve the products. tel: 02-5760606
Thank you for shopping with Foodland.
Best Regards,
Raviporn T.

The Oishi "BreakFast" tuna sandwich is good, but I don't know why they always ask me if I want it "nuked".
