Those who have had their accounts closed by UK banks
You've probably missed the threads where people have their address as Thailand i.e. receiving debit card in Thailand and suddenly they get notice their account is being closed, it depends on the banks, i think i recall posts for HSBC, NatWest and Barclays closing accounts, but it could be any bank if they decide they want them closed, hence the reason for the thread

Of course it does, the person who processed it accepted it was basically a fake address you never lived at, that could easy change in the future, but reassure yourself it wont happen you'll feel better that way. Banks can close accounts when they know you live abroad, it happens can take years, maybe just a policy change or more strictly applied

Yes you can get interest on cash with Wise, they were sending out emails about it recently. Balances moved to cash Funds or something like that

People can highlight the issue like they did closing politicians accounts or not bother, up to them, it's not an issue if everyone rolls over like you

You're stating the obvious, it's a good opportunity for those people to get on the same bandwagon, highlighting an issue for expats

It would be a mistake to quit, that's what they want, see a lawyer, a few thousand well spent. But she could be coming to the end of the road there one way or another

Lazada - how to get a refund with a poor review
I bought something, seller from China sent wrong item, it's not worth the effort to send back for 250 baht, i go for a refund based on not sending back to China, delay in it being approved so i tried giving a 1* poor review, refund gets approved within the hour, of course the review now disappeared which is why the refund was given. Anyway a good option to try if you don't want to send back. This may work if someone only had a limited number of reviews already, if they've had 1000s, they won't care as it won't impact the % much or at all
