  1. Par for course, really. Thailand and technology... In this country, technology deployments simply speed up the level of incompetence. Put a system on top of a broken process and all you get is a broken system.
  2. IO corruption and the visa agencies that participate (with them) are THE problem when it comes to people getting a visa that don't qualify for. Nothing new.
  3. Fraud, AML, regulatory compliance, immigration control... there are many reasons countries have these rules (Thailand isn't the only one)... Moreover, if you don't live here you don't need a bank account, and of you do live here, get the correct visa that allows you to open a bank account.
  4. Your reading comprehension is piss poor... Reread the original post... I said those without long stay visas have been getting accounts far to easily for too long (and they should not be)... NonO is a long stay visa and should be able get an account.
  5. In this case, the label is earned.
  6. Necessary, really. People showing up without the correct visa type (long stay visa) been opening accounts too easily for too long. But as is typical in Thailand, now the classic overcorrection snags even the legit long stay visa holders.
  7. Stop it πŸ˜‚ The stated goal is to simplify fund repatriation for Thai citizens. Expats ain't seeing any relief. What is, is. What might be may never come. That's the best you can hope for.
  8. The downward spiral of Phuket continues.
  9. Lock them up in any of Thailand's notoriously nasty prisons. Deportation is too easy.
  10. Sounds like she ended up right where she belongs.
  11. Ain't no one in their right mind who has ever seen potty-ya buying this πŸ˜‚ this is Thais giving awards to Thais #whatajoke
  12. One sided reporting, as usual. There is more to the story than meets the eye.
  13. In the LoS (land of scams) the government seemingly doesn't want to miss an opportunity to open up more avenues to grift tourist. I wouldn't trust any Thai government attempt at crypto (especially where Phuket "little Russia" is involved).
