Not really. It makes us both look like fools. Telling somebody how smart you are will always lead to well deserved abuse.

This is not really true. You can always confront the establishment face to face. It's when you publish things that you incur risk.

Me too. I cant help myself.

I am so much smarter than you that I don't bother to read your columns.

Trump represents the lowest possible state of human consciousness. He therefore serves as a reference point at the lowest end of the scale. Same as "Dead as a doornail" or "Stupid as a bag of hammers", etc. For example: "he/she/it is as stupid/venal/immoral/unethical/childish/deceitful as trump" .

I guess they hated the 2% inflation, low gas prices, peace treaties, and elimination of ISIS. ############# If you are implying that the orange clown had anything to do with that you're badly deluded.

All the people in other topics saying my worries about being forced to use phone apps for banking were unfounded, well, let's see what happens when you have your money disappear into one of these digital black holes. ############ I have steadfastly refused to install banking and similar apps on my phone. I always imagine sleepless nights over a lost or stolen phone. I try to avoid exposure.

Not really. I bought my house in huahin that way and paid at the land office. Very common.

I agree with the OP, but I shudder at the devastating consequences of an expat bar closing in Phuket.

Because engaging people while Trump is president who consistently ask why we voted in an absolute moron, is tiresome and it's better to just deflect by saying I'm Canadian. =======///// I've been doing that for years. I arrived here in 2016

It happens to many people, usually no sleep, stress. With me it's the upper lid left eye. . several times over last few decades. No worries .

Unlike many other banks BB cannot issue 12 month statement on the spot. Suggest that you photocopy bank book pages for last 12 months. Highlight the monthly transfers. When does your permission of stay expire. Good luck. =============== I had the same issue two years ago at hua hin Immigration office. Bangkok Bank advised me to take copies of last 12 months from my pass book and then they signed it. HuaHin Immigration grumbled a bit but accepted it. They advised me to get a timed account and money in that. That's what I've used since with no problem. May just be the luck of the draw. good luck to OP.

You got to admit her picture is arresting.

News FLASH: This thread should be an interesting test of the defamation laws. If restaurant complaints score high I'm guessing delivery services will come in a close second. Remember that the truth of the situation has no bearing whatsoever on the resolution of the dispute.

She was was there opening in a count for another ferrang couple and did it as a courtesy for me also. she was in her I owe uniform and was there on official business. We have known her for several years and she has helped us with other issues and is very helpful actually. I tried to offer her some money but she refused it and just smiled. nothing fishy about it at all .

22 hours ago, UWEB said: Have you used your Fixed Account for Extension of Stay at Hua Hin Immigration meanwhile, was it accepted? Yes. In fact it was an Immigration officer who suggested it and even had me meet her at my bank. When I got there she had bank people ready to help me and it was done in 20 min. Used it for three years now. I still go the day before my extension to get the statement letter. Never need any other bank account info.
