Funny that, I also done away with SCB and K bank, for unsatisfactory service.

Another reason to keep your savings in a bank in your own country, and only keep enough for living expenses, it is easy enough and very cheap to transfer your money here as you require it. Also, another reason to use an agent instead of keeping your money in a Thai bank.

Everybody has their own way of doing things, I get the Newsletter now on Gmail.

Do you get your Newsletter OK on Hotmail? I can't. Nearly every time I put a email in the archives, it just disappears. I have to forward it to Yahoo to keep it safe for me.

With the elite, all you are doing is throwing your money away.

I have had Hotmail for many years, but it has given me problems I have not had with Gmail or Yahoo. Is it possible to do anything so that when someone emails me on Hotmail, the email goes straight to Gmail or Yahoo? Is it possible that not changing to Outlook could be problematic in any way?

If you allow people to talk down to you in a hostile manner and you don't retaliate, then yes, you are scared. I bet that on an odd occasion, some IO probably has treated you in a hostile manner and you just accepted it, but each to his own.

If anyone raises their voice to me, then I will raise my voice back, IO or not, yes, I have an attitude, but it's not a problem. I could never go through life being a member of the "scared of your own shadow" brigade.

I was accused of being on a 25 day overstay, I gave him, the IO, a real mouthful, his boss fixed it, and I never even got an apology.

Maybe he didn't know about it or thinks it is illegal. I was here about five years before I knew anything about agents.

Maybe that's one of the ones who's insurance doesn't kick in for fourteen days, there are some that do that.

If any country insists on health insurance ie Thailands $100,000 scam, they should have to take full responsibility for any insurance company who tries to wangle it's way out of paying out claims.

No point, someone high in the office may tell you different from another someone high in the same office, or the main person, the boss could be replaced by a new boss the following day, week, month or even year with different interpretations of the same rule. This is Thailand.

If an insurance company refuses to pay out for a claim, which is not exactly unknown, and someone says or writes in public "I am still waiting for The Such N Such Insurance Company to pay out for my claim", or "The Such N Such Insurance Company have informed me they have rejected my claim", how is that defamation? It is not as if they have accused them of cheating, or warning anyone not to deal with them. So I ask again, how is that defamation?

The Thailand Banana Republic don't even have politicians running the country. Just an unelected general and his tinpot soldiers.

Think money.

What about the other Chuckle Brother? He's even worse.

The Chuckle Brothers would drive anyone to drink, but I have so far resisted as I have seen what it has done to you.

I take it you are talking about The chuckle Brothers. ????

What do you expect from a bunch of tinpot soldiers. The unelected DWP not a general, may be spouting off the nonsense, but on whose orders? The tinpot unelected PM. another case of The Chuckle Brothers in action. ????

When you open the door you must go slow, slow, very very slow. Then enter on tip toe.

Probably open for certain people, connections spring to mind here.

You are only speaking for yourself, there are many posters here that would say different. You can have all the common sense no problem, but that does not apply to many immigration offices who all have different rules, and interpretation of rules. The is no such thing as the "right paperwork" it all depends on the office you are dealing with, no matter how much money you have.

No! They will keep these PCR tests going as they are making the people involved in it rich, and when they get rich, The unelected government get even richer.

"From 1 November, the government will lift quarantine requirements for fully vaccinated travelers from 10 low-risk countries arriving by air." Note the word "will" not "would like to" or "hope to" but "will". Now let's all wait and see what happens. And if it comes to fruition, lets see what other charges you will have to pay 500Bt entry fee, insurance scam, etc, etc.
