Hi All, I am going to apply for Thai citizenship this year. Does anybody have any idea what an attorney in Thailand will charge for this?

Lately I went to Krungsri in Bangkok to withdraw 100000 ฿. The bank assistant at Krungsri would only let me take out the 100000 if I signed a paper that says that Krungsri is not responsible for my money in Krungsri. Is that normal now? Since I needed the money for a house extension, I signed the papers, and 10 minutes later, I transferred all my money from Krungsri to KrungThai. (I still have 76 ฿ in Krungsri).

Since I have a Nob-n visa, I just got myself a Thai Social Security (SSO), which gives me free medicine, free access to all public hospitals, and free admission to one private hospital. It cost me 472 ฿ per month as self sufficient. You have to work here for a minimum of 6 months and pay tax before you turn 60 to get SSO.

I tried to register for NDID in GSB Bank. They called the headquarter and responded that NDID is only for Thai Nationals. Another Thai initiative that hasn't been fully thought out. But NDID is a good initiative. P.s I am expat and have a Thai ID number from my Pink ID. This can't be used 😞

Two days ago I took out 8000 B from the savings bank ATM with my EU visa card. Everything went well except the ATM did give me my 8000 B. We went into the savings bank and asked if they could help. They say I have to call the call center. The next day the 8000 was taken from my EU account. So I called the saving-banks call center and they told me they could not help me so I lost 8000 B. Is this normal in Thailand?

Do this improve or harm the reputation of thailand? I guess money is money...
