If oyu have any accounts with other banks, it might be worth asking them for a letter or statement. Have you ever applied for a Certificate of Residence from Immigration for buying a car or motorbike? Copy of house book, Passport, copy of passport ID page, copy of visa, etc. I wonder if they would accept a Certificate of Residence from their own department as proof of address.

In a word. No. I can understand Russians moving here with their crypto. (They don't have too many countries that will accept them at the moment due to sanctions, and the blocks on Russian banking makes it difficult to move money. Others will go where the tax on crypto is the least punitive. After all, if you are newly rich on the recent Bitcoin rises, why given the choice, would you move somewhere that will take a large percentage of your profits? Bitcoin is volatile, and you have taken all the risk. Go somewhere that will treat you best.

i bought a couple of new Dunlop tyres off Lazada because they were cheap. When being fitted, big chunks came off one. The mechanic said they wer four years old, and had become brittle due to the heat. Had four new ones fitted and the mechanic wrote the car mileage (Kms) on a card to give me, and said come back after 10,000kms and we will rotate the tyres.

It's more likely the timing of your transaction rather than a decline in service. I sometimes get money sent within seconds. Other times can take a day or two. There are threads on here about it, but you would have to figure out the best time for your particular country. Sending money on a Friday (especially in the afternoon) will usually result in a Monday or Tuesday arrival.

So the three year old bruised his own genitals and made up a story about a teacher assaulting him with a steel ruler?

While there must be some good maths teachers here, the education level in some schools is severely lacking. Our twelve year old has had extra curricular maths lessons since she was six. Below is an example of what she is currently learning:

No. English guy that used to teach Thai in international schools. Used to enter many big Scrabble competitions. Someone will come along with his name. Maybe Rooster? Yes. That was it. Rooster:https://www.facebook.com/ASEANNOWBangkok/posts/asean-now-columnist-rooster-wins-ne-thailand-scrabble-championships-️-httpsasean/666827505241551/

The flat of the steel ruler, or the edge? It matters pain wise. Whichever, the teacher needs firing. Sadistic <deleted>.

There used to be a moderator on here that was a scrabble champion. Can't quite remember his name. He used to write a regular article. Seems to have disappeared.

Back in the day, before mobiles, I used to carry all friends and family telephone numbers in my head. Nowadays, although I still remember many, the use of mobile phones negates that use. Also back then, there were always telephone directories in the red boxes. Failing that, directory enquiries. I think that when convenience takes over, be it mobile phones, or calculators, the brain quickly realises some things aren't necessary and adapts accordingly. Thais having calculators handy seems to be one of those things, but it does seem to also show a lack of ability in Maths.

I thought the Thai police had those pitchfork type things that they use to herd unruly prisoners into submission. Maybe he had a few too many, but. after those two New Zealand guys attacking the cop in Phuket, they might want to punish him a bit more severely to discourage it happening again.

Could be sign of a slipped disc, cervical area. I awoke with similar symptoms, all different sorts of pain, numbness, tingling, throbbing, burning. all radiating from right hand index finger, up my arm to my shoulder. The doctor told me he could tell which disc by which finger the pain was starting from. Mine stopped at the neck. Didn't go up to the ear. I was given painkillers and anti inflammatories, but what worked for me were several DRGB's (Dorsal Root Ganglion Blocks). Basically injections of painkiller and steroids right to the site of the ruptured disc. Best see a doctor. Even if a trip involved, because if it is a disc and gets worse, it can be extremely painful.

Finally. A hub Thailand doesn't want to be for.

Did you open it from Thailand? Maybe they use some sort of geographical location check to see where you are applying from.

UPDATE: So I went to SCB. Was put on the phone to SCB Security. Turns out they don't yet have the facility to do facial scans for passports yet. Their words, not mine. So they had to set up a temporary Facial Scan Exemption. After some security checks I was told it would take between 2 and 24 hours to receive the text. It actually came through in an hour. So all now set up. So it seems as if SCB are a little behind BKK and K- Banks.

I was thinking the same thing. Oh! the irony.

I have already successfully moved my BKK Bank and K-Bank apps across to my new iPhone without any problems. Very easy. However. I am having no success with my SCB Easy app and before I make the journey to my SCB branch I thought I would ask here if anyone has any ideas on something I might be doing wrong. Although it does seem pretty straightforward. If not, I guess it's off to the bank tomorrow. Checked VPN is OFF. Tried with wifi both ON and OFF. Agreed consent to verify phone number with provider. Clicked I am already an SCB Customer Provided info requested, in correct format: Passport Nationality, Passport number, Date of Birth. Click Next > Get Sorry. Try Again

When I quickly glanced at that pic, I thought it was a punk rocker with a Mohican.

Perhaps they were all in their underwear to make sure no one was wearing a wire. Keep out the undercover cops. 😀

They have just as much right to be here as the rest of us. But it is true that just as in any country, including mine, a sudden influx of large number of immigrants in a short time, can put a strain on housing, schools etc.

I agree with everything the OP says. I still use both, and always keep some cash tucked away for emergencies. Computer systems have broken down several times recently in the UK, leaving people either unable to withdraw cash or purchase anything. Many will say it's "tin hat" time, but we are losing more and more control over our own lives to governments. less freedom to say what you want, and soon control over how and what you spend your money on. if you can't spend on what you want, you can't own what you want. I have said before. The Australian government already did this with some pension payments. gave recipients a card instead of cash. Could only be spent in certain stores. Could not be spent on cigarettes or alcohol. Similar to the recent Pheu Thai THB10,000 scheme. "You will own nothing and be happy."

Chinese paying THB200.000 for virgins? Must be desperate, as males outnumber females back home in the motherland.

The trouble with the BBC is that it is full of "Woke Lefties" whose personal political bias will tend to affect their reporting.

Over zealous IO's. The guy was trying to leave, yet they still arrested him. Maybe Phuket specific and someone is brown nosing for a promotion or bonus.

Unfortunately I am a bad sleeper. Rarely get anything like eight hours, even after a hard workout at the gym. still wake up feeling knackered. Lack of enough sleep is worse for one's health than too much. I have tried everything, from not eating after 7pm, and going to bed at 10:30, to ear plugs. I guess it's just the way I am. But the quietness of the early mornng is a bonus.
