    I worked at a learner centre and did an art class.  We did an intro to an artist than did an artwork in a similar style.  It was a great lesson and the students finished and went home.  I got back from lunch and the entire room was trashed.  Paint on the floor and brushed thrown across the tables.  Turned out the Thai ladyboy used to be the art teacher and he was a bit jealous so just trashed the room, got the maids in and then said I did it.

     

    Bloody postmodernists...

    You don't know how brits describe the french , it is certainly not as cowards, that "honour" is reserved for the Italians

    The French regularly take to the streets to protest,  good on them if you ask me

     

    Those Frenchies and their street protests against raising the pension age in 2023 were a significant factor in the UK government backing down from their plans to bring forward the state pension age to 68 from the early 2030's.

    Just seen this - many thanks for posting. Now, for the real Gold Star, all you need to do is tell me how to take advantage of the offer without the proof-of-purchase I binned on returning from the oh-so-unhelpful service centre a few days after the warranty had run out! (Who in hell keeps receipts for more than 2 years?)

     

    If they let me, I would replace the screen - it was absolutely superb until it went wonky.

     

    Probably worth trying the service centre anyway - they may be willing to process any claims that come in during the time window they've given. This lawsuit has been a year or more in the making and got quite a bit of coverage last summer but it seems like Samsung is not really publicising the outcome. It's similar to an earlier case with Samsung India where they did offer new screens for phones with the same issues but until now Samsung Thailand had been refusing any compensation claims.

    I was brand-loyal for many years too. I have an S21. It has the green lines (since about 2 days after warranty finished, incidentally) and they just keep spreading. "Customer service" in BKK just actually laughed when I showed them, and agreed there isn't a replacement screen this side of Finland but it would cost B7000 if there were.

     

    Worth looking into this. Samsung Thailand has caved as a result of a class action lawsuit and is now offering free screen replacement for 11 affected models. Registration period is short and runs until September 21st.

    He’s probably taken a lump sum from his pension fund, just leaving the minimum in. 
    might have used the capital to buy the property, giving a better return than the pension……

    whatever your thoughts on the guy, it’s a sh1tshow of massive proportions, and enough to make you want to enrol in the Pattaya Flying Club

     

    Not enough information in the article, though it does say he's 65 which would put him less than a year away from state pension. If he's fully funded it he'd then be in line for an additional 43-45k thb a month (albeit frozen) from his next birthday.
