  1. A hideous crime that I am deeply saddened to read about . My deepest sympathy to the families of the murder victims families .
  2. I thank you for your input . I have written to the Bangkok bank explaining what was said. My main reason for asking for a second bank account is to reduce the savings in my account that I am using every day.
  3. I think the dollar has peaked . Jump in now if i was you . sent some dollars to a thai bank account for 36,8 a few weeks ago . Missed out on the 38 by thinking it was at its peak . Hard to judge
  4. I have read that there is a fund for ex professional footballers in the UK for situations like this that is funded by the professional footballers playing today . Must be 10 years back that i read about the fund .
  5. My experience with Bangkok Bank is you must go to the home branch for any new debit card . I was there yesterday to obtain a new card and interestingly there was no charge as i kept the original pin number . Two previous occasions i have had a new card using the same pin cost me 100 baht . I mentioned that to the lady saying you owe me 200 baht . Of course i just received a smirk . I also asked for a second account . A woman came out saying foreigners can not have more than one account . Then a second woman came out and said yes you can have a fixed term account as well . But you have to come with a embassy letter. I am some what confused what the embassy has to inform them on , plus why ask for more information when i have a savings account with them . Perhaps I try Kasikorn Bank as many say they are more user friendly .
  6. It was not intentional comment can only make depositors feel far from secure if there money should go missing from there account .
  7. Because I was betting the pound would go down and the dollar would go up . That is exactly what happened.
  8. I used wise UK to transfer funds and they are to be trusted . I transfered pounds to dollars two months ago within the wise account . And now i have transfered us dollars to baht recently . I was pleased with the result .
  9. The problem with your suggestion on raising interest rates here in Thailand at the same amount as the US are doing is that there are many in problems to pay there loans . Obvious repercussions would eventuate
  10. Parity with the euro is on the cards and the US dollar is a certainty . Take the inflation in account then the UK pensionists in Thailand will be hit hard .
  11. The driver of the car was breaking the speed limit by at least 50 percent . For that reason the pedestrian has to be allowed some compensation for his irresponsible way of crossing the road . When you drive faster than the legal limit you take a huge risk if things go wrong . Pedestrians and drivers can learn from this unfortunate incident . My deepest sympathy to the family of the deceased
  12. Gossip is done with out your presence yet doing much harm to you . Therefore if a person who involves in gossip they are getting involved .
  13. In my opinion Thais have a problem to mind there own business . That has been my experience Biggest gossip mongerers I have come across after having lived in the UK , Australia and Norway before living in Thailand .
  14. The man is wanting to help the local community that he lives in . How is that difficult to understand ? I think you are the weird one .
  15. I suggest you be quick at what ever the price for the exchange for pounds to baht . Parity with the US dollar is fast coming..
  16. Many countries are doing the same . The US dollar strength is causing big problems for many countries .
