  1. V poorly written item. Who found the wallet? Mr Dam or the Tourist? Why would a Tourist take a discarded wallet to the Police and then wait for the owner? Who would spread wallets around Ko San with 1000 bht notes and ID? Does seem a lot of unlikely items on AN today!
  2. If you have a skill that the company needs which is not available in Thailand then possibly your employment could be legitimate and lead to PR otherwise being a millionaire helps!
  3. Something not quite right about this story. Hospitals always check ID/passports before giving treatment as do insurance companies before granting cover and paying out and Police follow up overstayers??? Plot for a soap episode???
  4. Lacks pedestrian operated traffic lights. Have then on beach Rd Pattaya- why don't they roll them out everywhere?
  5. It was 51 before the ballot! Do not fear- will bounce back when Bozo is dragged kicking and screaming from Nos 10.
  6. Gross exaggeration. Many more countries out there much worse than Thailand. Mine for one! Guess which?
  7. Absolutely! Can't open up the country if basic hygiene isn't continued. Masks, hand washing and self isolation must continue. Booster vacs essential! You know it makes sense!
  8. Always best to copy data from last successful application. Probably eat my words when I do my next one as I've just registered a new passport!
  9. Jomtien insist you use their forms and handfill them. Tried v neat typed forms off their website and they sent me away to handfill their tatty photocopies! Also asked for a document list and they only had it in Thai! Not surprising I am considering changing from marriage to retirement extension with an agent when I don't have to queue at their office only providing photos passport and bankbook for their stamp. Cost is significant but how do you price in the stress of multiple visits and queuing to Immigration, Bank, Municipal Offices etc as well as a possible home visit, 30 days under consideration when HQ may and does ask for more paperwork and then a further 13 mths of collecting credit advices from BB and monitoring Jomtien's ever-changing rules. At some point I will either get fed up working year round for Immigration or become physically incapable of attending Bank, Municipal Offices and Immigration. Roaring around Pattaya in a souped up electric wheelchair at extension time could be the answer!
  10. And quite a few think that Ukraine must have prodded the Russian Bear and brought it on themselves!
  11. Well it follows that if you remove all restrictions to increase tourist revenue in the high season you will get super spreaders bringing in the latest variant. Somebody recommend me for a Nobel prize? Experienced 3 recent UK arrivals all of which I had to remind to wear masks!
  12. Sorry but customers cannot do everything on a banking app-see my previous response
  13. But what do we disenfranchised expats do when our embassies renege on income letters and we have to drag ourselves into our BB branch to obtain credit advices and annual statements for Immigration??? OK BB open branches in all Immigration Offices! Or even better Embassies/Immigration do a deal on income letters!
  14. U turn dangers extended into border airspace. Hope pilot looked both ways!
  15. Licence requires public liability insurance-better than nothing which is what you get now!
  16. 7 jabs???? Fetish or what???? Anutins had 6- you his boss????
  17. Agents don't procure illegal extensions. They persuade the senior Immigration staff to exercise their lawful discretion.
  18. Worked yesterday but can't get in via app today. Can get in via pc but transactions not up to date.
  19. Fortunately my bank spotted this one so I didn't loose any money
  20. Never ending cycle. Dredge sand- build up beach- install new drainage- Deluge- new drainage doesn't work- sand washed into bay- Dredge sand- etc etc. Keeps construction companies gainfully employed.
  21. Maybe somebody has a sizeable investment in Hospitels they want to protect???? Many Festivals = Super spreaders = Much money?
