Oh please, I suggested he get the C of R because I assumed he would help him.
Others have claimed the opened an account without it, and you as much as called them a liar, just like you did me when you said I did not get my DL without a CR. You said it was impossible but in fact you had never even tried it.
And at that time, you claimed it was because it different everywhere, yet here you are insisting it's the same everywhere regarding opening bank accounts.
The last bank account I opened was with Krunsri and I used my pink ID and no C of R.
If dude can get a C of R he should try to get one, but there is no harm in trying to open an account if he can't.
