Well who was? The sleeping beauty maybe? ????

I really don't need to bother doing that, if everyone else accepts the card and only one company, may I point out that I am not just referring to one Lotus store, does not then it is obvious who is at fault.

and don't forget to have their petrol money ready, just in case.

Come on now, how many expats have Thai citizenship, or whatever it is they call it, like you?

He would spend most of his time sleeping.????

He was educated at a Military Academy, I don't think the subject of democracy would come up there, and yet he is supposed to be leading the country. That is what you get when you have an unelected PM.

Here is another "confused" emotican. This poster has asked a question which is easy for any educated person to understand, so why the confused emotican?

I do that at Makro, never a problem.

This is not a new thing, has been like that for months.

Mastercard. but only Lotus have the problems.

Why is it I always seem to have problems using my Bangkok debit card at Lotus stores. Regularly used at Big C, Homepro, Mr Do It Yourself etc with no problems, is it just that Lotus are employing poorly educated check out people or what?

Yes, maybe he should, but so should the unelected PM. I would say that what he did backed up by his soldiers, guns and tanks is far worse than anything Thaksin did.

If Thaksin should go to jail then what should happen to Prayut? Surely this unelected Military Academy educated soldier should be more worthy of going to jail than Thaksin. At least Thaksin was elected fairly by the Thai people. What is the unelected generals bank account finances now compared with when he stole the country in 2014? What are Thaksins?

If Phuket hotels are anything like Bangkok's I hope more of them go out of business. Bangkok's cheaper hotels around lower Sukhumvit have been going daft with their prices over this high season.

Confusing?? Is my English hard to understand or what?

I actually do have a phone app that can transfer funds, and have done so, but when the assistant said cash only, her exact words, I did not look at it like you could use your bank app. Cash only to me means cash over the counter. I am not saying you are wrong as maybe I will be able to use my bank app though.

So you are confused? Is there something wrong with my English or what?

A double decker bus full of them arrived at a 7-11 rest area near Nakhon Sawan arriving from somewhere up north last week.

What about the all you can eat buffets? I doubt if any of these will be keen to reopen. I must admit I did miss the breakfast and evening buffets at the Lek Hotel. The Chinese are not well known for being big spenders, so why are they queueing at Starbucks, not the free wifi surely.

I am just starting to buy gold, only last week I asked if I could use my UK or Thai debit card to buy gold and was told cash only. Imagine anyone bringing in over two million baht in cash to buy one of these bigger blocks of gold.

That's the soldiers with their Military Academy education and their health minister with the engineering degree for you. ????

There is no need to do them anyway, they are only there because Thai governments, soldiers or not, love the authority they have over Farangs.

My money arrived yesterday from Wise into my Bangkok Bank account after less than 2 mins, same as usual.

I once got a shock which blew me off the stage when I touched the microphone stand in front of me which I did not know was live. I did not need any medical treatment although it did finish the gig. Unbelievably my Fender Precision Bass and mike were not even damaged.

Read my post about the 550Bt charge for one jab. Yes at a government hospital. Since the pandemic, some members of the medical profession are going daft with their prices.
