  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 😂 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 😂 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).
  14. Telegraphing to his wife that their marriage was a shame and it's over. Will turn up with a new girlfriend soon.
  15. It was on approach to Phuket... It wasn't forced to land in Phuket. It has 2 engines. Those planes are engineered to fly on 1 engine when necessary.
  16. Until they start arresting people and not just let them get away with crap like this, it's never going to abate.
  17. BBC literally did a TV news story on Koh Phangan interviewing Russians blatantly admitting such activities. About time the Thai authorities did their jobs.
  18. So what... He is still 100% a <deleted>. None of which makes a lick of difference to my original comment, which I will restart... Said <deleted> faces 3 possible outcomes... Loss of freedom and/or loss of finances, or to flee the Kingdom to save himself from accountability.
  19. Improperly overtaking another vehicle resulting in a head-on collision and death... My thinks the Brit best be ready to suffer his freedom and/or finances, or flee the Kingdom.
  20. The self entitlement of the privileged class in Thailand is truly astounding.
  21. Could but won't because oversight requires someone do actual work
  22. Dumb... I'm going to suggest not requiring a TM6 (as is now) is as streamlined as it gets, or needs to be
  23. You would think that all the incels who come to Thailand would be satisfied with just being able to finally get laid.
