  1. I don’t get this , tourists escaping paying their hospital bills , firstly don’t let them leave to hospital until someone has paid and or when they leave country , they have passport details on record <deleted> .. which tells me it’s not the issue at all , I’ve never heard of anyone absconding without paying .. I think it’s actually lack of farang in hospitals... is giving them grief .. 

    although I won’t be going anywhere, 500 bht seems ok to me , I’d pay it .

    Agree....a good friend of mine lives in Jomtien and his 95 year old mother with whom he was close, died in May in UK.

    For obvious reasons, he did not travel to the funeral - at that time he should have isolated in UK for 14 days and then he could never have got back into Thailand.

     

    But....despite the fact that he would have liked to have attended, funerals are not for the dead - they're for the survivors.

    Yes I can understand, my mum is 90 and in poor health .. I’ve told my sister if the worse happens I won’t be able to come home under the circumstances... she’s not happy but what can I do .

  3. Just a question really , I’m ok as I’m currently on an o-A extension 7th year , no plans to leave Thailand any time soon , especially as I won’t be allowed back in .. I have 3.7million baht in two Thai bank accounts .. if you are stuck in another country and have money banked in Thailand is it possible to transfer it out to your , ( say for example in this case UK account , from the UK ? ) 

    I enquired that question yesterday in my local Bangkok bank , and was told you can only close your account or transfer money from within Thailand ....  I’d imagine there’s a few frustrated people out there that can’t get back in yet ?
