  1. I never do my 90 days online so unable comment on this
  2. Some people on here will disagree with me (all immigrations are not the same) but when I did this and reported for my next 90 days, I was refused and had to fill in a new TM30
  3. Hope they still leave the option open for people wanting to walk to the top of the mountain. I did it once, pretty tough but glad I did it
  4. Agree on the "rubbish" subjective on health insurance. Anyone at anytime could be faced with a massive bill. I am 70 year old and have just taken out health insurance, it is not perfect but I am covered until I am 99 year old, by which time I will be pushing up daisies, it suits my requirements, touch wood I am pretty healthy for a 70 year old. The proof of the pudding will be if I have to make a claim
  5. There is a big difference in the English accent from Newcastle to Devon to London. It reminds me when my thai wife and I (she is from NE Issaan) ventured to Bangkok together for the first time, she got in conversation with another Thai woman after she had gone I asked what they were talking about, she replied that she couldn't understand, I said but you are Thai she said yes but it is a longtime since I have been in Bangkok
  6. You may all laugh at this but I get Catarrh in the rain season. Went to local doctor who told me I have allergy to rain which disturb the pollen on the plants. He gave me some pills and hey presto gone within a few days
  7. Issaan is no different to any other place in Thailand, I can only speak of personal experience. I honestly believe whether it be in your own country or Thailand, certain people do attract trouble more than others
  8. By far the worse experience I have had is booking flights from Bangkok to Philippines, you have to be very, very, vigilant.
  9. At least he was not British 🤪🤪!!
  10. I have stayed in Government Hospitals in Thailand, I find very hard to believe the conditions he is describing
  11. Beyond me why people carry such large amounts of cash
  12. Year after next actually. Thai tax year is January - December
  13. Maybe because very few expats where I live, not tourist city
  14. I have a tax I'd no. Every year I go to the local tax office and reclaim tax on my bank account. Never any issues
  15. 4 months ago I had it done in Thailand for under 9,000 baht
  16. The first time I came, Thailand had a profound effect on me. On my return I can remember standing in my local and thinking to myself "What the f--k am I doing here" That was 33 years ago, now living in Thailand without doubt that was one of my better decisions in my life
  17. I posted on the other thread but yes obviously they want to move on and think a lot about you
  18. She has obviously got designs on you, best to be honest with her
  19. If you have income extra from the normal income, ie work, state pension then by law you have to fill in a tax return every year. Some people may not realise that if you have rental property you have to fill in a form (your agent should send to you) HMRC visit every agen checking on property rented out
  20. My wife and I have income from UK, we fill in tax return every year, so I can prove
  21. Where do you get 25%- 30% from?
  22. You wil lose more with that than paying tax
  23. You wil lose more with that than paying tax
