It depends how much you used it, 8 years is a good run, just get your wife to wash by hand, that should put a smile on her face. 

Don’t pay. 

I am thinking of writing a letter to the BK Post & The Nation to advise them there are a lot of Expats hurting from the new rules regarding the 800K money in the bank situation, I might also forward it to Immigration. It seems the only way to get noticed over here is for the press to start running the story, then something may be done about it. Any feedback or advice from the TV members would be appreciated, even what to name the article. 

An erection for the election, maybe he knows something we don’t.

I know that when flying into Thailand from the UK, I am not allowed any more than £10,000 in cash.
But according to the Thai custom website which I have just checked...

Currency Import regulations: Local currency (Baht-THB): up to THB 50,000.- per person or THB 100,000.- per family holding one passport. Foreign currencies: unlimited. However, amounts of foreign currency exceeding USD 20,000.- (or equivalent) must be declared to a Customs Officer upon arrival by all travelers.

Therefore did he declare this and if not will he be looking at a fine or the cash seized?

Remember his wife is Thai, you sure it’s 50,000? That’s not a lot of money to bring in,only 1400 USD.

200B fine, and one month national service.

Bank statement showing international transfers or a bank book with a code that proves it was an international transfer.

Hi Joe the 65k that is transferred every month does that have a seasoning period before you can draw on it?? Could you draw it out the next day ? Thanks.

Was there a marijuana plantation & a bunch of hippies staying there  because I think I have seen the movie. 

He did not look drunk to me ?

Joe I go back to Sydney I probably top the account up to 800.000. Can I get a single non O visa in Sydney?

You can but it’s a lot of hassle much better to come back here and do it. 

How did he enter the country on a one way ticket? 

Looks like they were trying to catch a wild animal.

Looks like you will have to do the extension of stay based on education, unless you have the money for a Thai elite. Good luck.

If you have to 'protect' yourself from her family, then you have married the wrong person....  

Why , she might be fantastic lady , just the family are <deleted>. 

I think the real children were at the temple not the school. 

You can buy the generic V in any of the pharmacies for 180 per pack , made in Thailand now the the patent has expired, exactly the same stuff but generic. 

A what a bunch of suck holes, take this gift and all will be forgotten 

makes me want to throw up. 

What about Japan if you can afford it. 

Did they not bring them all in a few days ago with a meeting on how to be polite and not to overcharge customers, they even gave a free first aid course after the meeting. WAs the Sparta knife loss of face defence course included in the meeting? I must have missed the memo on that one. 

I was in a 7/11 the other day and I witnessed a Thai girl put her Thai ID card in the the machine on the counter so it could read the micro chip with all her information, I found it to be an invasion of privacy for a retail store to be able to read all this personal information, as for you passport, don’t worry about it, as other posters stated everybody from banks, hotel, motorbike rental company’s and immigration has a copy. 

Would not rule one for the Taxi drivers is a lesson on how to turn on the meter??? The first aid is for after they beat the shit out of you when you dispute the overcharging. 

Looks like a real quality tourist, but then again Pattaya is a world class family destination. I think he also wee wee himself.
