    The UK is desperate for medical professionals but they do little to resolve the problem. Universities have openly admitted they need overseas students to subsidise the domestic students and of those that can afford it is unlikely that many will be very productive.

    I don't know where you have got this information or maybe it is just applies to medical professions 

    I come from a 2 university city (1 new -college gaining university status  in the last 7 years) and only finished a degree course 8 years ago

    Universities are big business, the money to be made is extrodinary 12 halls of residences built and whole areas of the city now occuppied by students in those 7 years

    Not only do they get the cost from students they also get grants from the government, for a 4 year course £500 year 1 £350 £250 £175 in latter years

    Lecturers would basically give you the questions to the exams so you would be prepared (and the answers in some cases). As one lecturer told me, it's all about bums on seats

    Yes of course there are foriegn students (mainly chinese i would say) but the idea that they rely on them is preposterous (but a huge source of income)

    overseas students are a very small minority but growing by the year from my observations

    What did these men think would happen when marrying a low educated farm girl/bar girl?

    I could not agee with you more. Trying to have an intellectual conversation is like sticking

    pins in oneself

    Used to think it was more to do with the language barrier and would get better. One young little sprog later, too late

    For a lot of people here its not an issue, their either just looking for companionship or on the same level

    That said, for me, nothing can compare to the love of a child and you certainly won't be lonely (not for the next 16 years anyway)

    Fully understand the reasons for people who say rent but as someone has already implied, the grass is always greener on the other side.

    Just direct from Halifax Uk using swift. And it arrives FTT

    Transferwise has already stated they cannot guarantee the FTT code

    Many posters have recieved both

    So on the basis that yourself and a few other people have recieved the FTT code we are supposed to think everything is OK?

    Are you prepared to risk your extension when you suddenly realise they haven't been coming through this way for a few months and the ensuing panic to try and sort it out

    No, Article 44 was there so you could have everything your own way.

    Very little, if anything, has changed with "your version" of civilian rule, and, one way or another, your days at the helm are numbered. 

    Not unless the senate get disolved where he holds absolute power

    He probably, now holds more power than before as he  has the will of the senate to warrant any decision he makes.

    TW is not to blame, they always have said from the start that the last leg of the transfer is domestic. 

    Not so sure that statement is correct 

    Why were Bangkok banks statements always identified as  FTT, until now ?

    Bangkok bank has declared that it not due to them

    Transferwise has admitted they have changed the way they are doing things now (we have not been told what has changed)

    I can only assume they did not have enough liquidity within Thailand until now

    Now they state, as always, it is to save us money. This is not about saving us money but about them making more money

    i transfer 1 million baht plus and i suspect most people do close to this, so the sums involved will equate to millions,  whether dollars, pounds or any other currency

    What you should do is go to your bank and ask them for an explanation and emphasize why you need said explanation.  Additionally you can ask them to provide you with a letter of explanation (or a Credit Advise at the bare minimum) for immigration purposes.

     

    A reply from you on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Not in a position to at the moment as i'm in the UK and will be for a while

    I use the 800k so does not affect me but have been considering changing to a dependant visa/extension

    Ultimately it could affect me in the future. I will do as you have suggested but cannot at this time
