OK, but why do they have these virtual chatlines when it was always a live person before? My opinion is that they deliberately make it difficult to speak to a live person. What if I don't want to enquire about a product, but wanted to speak to a live person ie, about the problem I mostly have when trying to sign in?

I have tried several times in these hours, but no live person.

Maybe I can forget to do my next 90 day report and not bother with renewing my annual retirement extensions, then when Immigration catch up with me, I can just say it was unintentional.

Maybe all these members of the "scared of your own shadow" brigade, the retiree's who have 800.000 Baht in their Thai bank for their retirement extensions, will have second thoughts and draw it out, and do their retirement extensions elsewhere.

Money is always required for the unelected PM and his sleeping partner Prawit's offshore accounts, and don't forget the 200 or so generals.

Will just be glad to get rid of all this rain, it has been the worst ever in the 15 years I have been here.

Who is Prawit? Oh! I know now, with the unelected PM being back, he will be the sleeping partner.

How can you pick your nose while wearing a mask? Oh! Wait.

I bet that you would not have got that account if you were on a tourist visa or arrived visa exempt. Being on retirement or marriage extensions it should not be too hard, you just have to look around.

Years ago I read here from a poster that just opened up a bank account with a Bangkok Bank branch in Bangkok. About two weeks later I went to try and open up an account at that bank and the teller said I needed something from Immigration, I cannot remember exactly what it was. I said to the teller that this bank opened up an account for a farang about two weeks ago. I was then told "Oh! We have a new manager now. Says it all really. Give a Somchai a bit of power and Well! There you go.

OK. Anyone else able to get to Lazada's chatline and speak to a real person, I mean now, not in the past as I have done that several times before. Not a virtual, but a real chatline, and not a phone call. Am I the only person who can't?

I think that would be a real waste of time no matter when you try it.

This is a bit off topic but I will go ahead. There are shops in Scotland with this notice out side "Everything under £25". Above the notice in very small words in dark lettering. "Almost Everything".

Yes, I cannot see where you will get a real person if there is no one there.

How long ago was this? Try it now and let me know how you get on.

Yes, same as Lazada, Lazada used to have a real person, now what they have is what they call a virtual chatline, you can only get answers to their chatline, you are not able to ask them a question, as you would a real person.

They were exchanged for submarines.

Who was in charge of the country between "the coup that never was" in 2014 and 2017? Maybe it was the unelected PM's sleeping partner.

Yes, but just check the fee's of any agent before you use them. They can differ by thousands of Baht, I know through experience. But the majority of agents are fine.

All that lot looks like a load of unnecessary hassle. TiT.

I am sure the unelected soldiers and medical profession will soon find someway to screw the ordinary person as they made a fortune out of the pandemic.

See what I mean when I said he hasn't got the brains to cover anything up, why did he say he trusted the court. Surely he should have kept his mouth shut.

My endorsement then is the same as it is now. No country in the world should ever have a government who is not voted in by the majority of the country's population.

Wrong figures. 99% ????

The only reason they will be impossible to remove is because they have the soldiers, tanks and guns.
