To learn to read and write Thai !!

Who am I kidding !!

perhaps they tickle each other's palms when shaking hands .....

When the race is over, would be a lot quicker for JAG to just go back to the starting line .....

Be careful what you wish for !!!

No nance a few pages back now....The one with the big wangers.

RIP Stuart.

My sympathies to family and friends.

The portable stereo has just arrived. 

JLC will be surprised to see the white limo roll up outside his place, and even more bowled over when the red carpet is rolled out and he is whisked off to his ringside seat of the POTY Crowning ceremony, and everything is comp btw,  including the earplugs ....

I just popped round to Transam’s house to offer my support but couldn’t get close !!

I would dump it, pop down to the nearest water machine and fill it for 6 or 7 baht or is that gonna break the bank ?

Asked about the thread closing and was told probably will stay open, providing everyone behaves. Congrats and mocking are allowed, teasing too. The winner can obviously rub everyone's faces in it .....

“ should I go for the pink or the brown ? “



Sorry [emoji52]

Hmmm. I have much recent experience with this.

There is no Embassy letter or cert. stating you are allowed to open an account.

You may want to verify they are possibly talking about a cert. of residency. 

 

Bangkok Bank by far is your best option but you may have been given bad info.

Normally they require the cert. of residency, and a retirement Visa or work permit.

 

A tourist Visa from my experience will get you nowhere.

 

If UOB will do it with what you say, I would rush and go get it tomorrow.

 

Lots of info in this forum about this topic, but most of it is outdated.  

Good luck let us know how it works out for you.

I opened an account with Bangkok Bank on a tourist visa a year ago after visiting 3 previous branches who requested a work permit. You can persevere by visiting more branches BUT i agree with bkk6060 and going by recent posts on TVF i believe its more difficult now if even possible.

I moved province recently and approached my local branch to open an account and transfer my funds from existing Bangkok Bank account, they said they would open me an account if i had a work permit !! , i left it as is.

They certainly don't make it easy for you !!

I would:

Try a few more branches and if all are no go hotfoot it back to UOB !

Can’t knock the guy for trying !!

Yup, Som Tum Pla will do that to ya !!!

With an electric heater, when the electric goes off it doesn't matter whether the water is hot or not, I'm usually all soaped up and the pump turns off so no water period, hot or cold!

One for JLC !!



Sorry Trans ( only joking ) I know you have the voice of an angel [emoji56]

It is suspected that Baboon is a member of the Green Party !
Here he is showing his interest in the environment !!

I just told Mrs.Trans that she may not have to go on  the free TVF Silver hat trick holiday as things stand now.......Weeell, l haven't seen her this happy since last Tuesday..
 
Anyhooo, in anticipation that stuff will remain the same she would like to send all the voters a Christmas smile with me not singing/but drunk in the background...
 

 
 

I’ve got mine on order !

It does look like Transam is stretching his lead
(am I allowed to say that on the internet?)
