  8. OP … I use BKK probably because it was the only branch in town when I moved here. Opened an account at a different bank couple of years ago and was a bit of a hassle. Showed the manager the requirements to open account on their website… proceeded to call headquarters while in the bank… was told it’s up to branch manager if they want to add requirements. My US social security is direct deposited at BKK bank. Note these direct deposits go into a special account with no ATM or Internet banking ( you can check balance and history). If you want to make withdrawals/ deposits you have to go to a branch personally. A hassle but not too much once a month when money is deposited go in transfer to another BKK account… .. don’t worry the second account is a breeze to open… Note if your address for US Social Security is Thailand you’ll need to submit “I’m alive “ form once a year. Form is sent via mail..

  13. Me thinks someone took a head shot at a soccer(football) match and hasn’t fully recovered. Tossing people for minor vehicle infractions sounds like a great way to welcome tourists to the county for holiday. Hopefully whomever spurted this nonsense quickly retract it and come up with solutions for all people not just those people.

  18. Here you go Rooster….. The Story of the Guardian Bells These little bells, known in the motorcycling world as Gremlin Bells, Guardian Bells, or Spirit Bells, are a kind of good luck charm for motorcycle riders. The bell is said to protect them during their travels, similar to how a pendant or image of St. Christopher, the patron saint of travelers, is often carried in vehicles to protect their occupants while on the road. Here’s how the bell works: legend has it that there are harmful spirits that lurk the roadways, always on the lookout for motorcycles to cling onto and cause mischief. You may have heard of unusual and hard-to-diagnose problems that occur in machines (most often in electrical systems) being called “gremlins,” and supposedly, it is these same unpredictable and harmful spirits that cause problems for motorcycles and their riders. The Gremlin Bell is a way to ward off these spirits. It is said to work by capturing them in the hollow of the bell and infuriating them with the constant ringing until they release their hold and break free, returning to the roadway to find another unsuspecting rider without a bell to harass instead. The Rules of the Bell: There are some “rules,” however, to the Gremlin Bell and how it works: 1.) It should not be bought by the user - in order to work, it must be given to a rider from a loved one. According to the legend, a bell is “activated” by the gesture of good will when someone, especially another rider, gives it to a rider they care about as a gift. 2.) It should be attached to the lowest part of the frame. Because gremlins lurk on the roadways and “grab” onto bikes as they pass by, the low-hanging bell should be the first thing they contact, so that they are immediately captured by it. It should be attached securely – safety wire is sometimes used, but that can create rust and scratches, so a zip-tie is generally the preferred method. 3.) When a bike with a bell on it is sold, it should be removed. The Gremlin Bell is a gesture of kindness to a rider from someone who cares about them, so it should be kept by the intended recipient, and can be transferred to another bike. If someone sells a bike with a bell and they want the new rider to have it, they should still remove it, and give it to them face to face. 4.) A bell that is not given with intentional good will loses its spirit-fighting mojo. If someone steals a Gremlin Bell, the gremlins go with it – and the bell will no longer ward them off. The key to the bell’s power is good will. If it is stolen, it loses its effect...and karma will take care of the rest! 5.) One Guardian Bell is all that a bike will need if all of the above rules are followed. Ride safe, and KNOW that you are loved! LIST
  19. OP A friend had a white truck (New) Ranger had it raised, black look like mud wrap. The next tax registration he was denied because more than 50% of truck was black. Didn’t here how it worked out he (his wife) took took it to province in south where he bought it. China has the same restrictions and you have to get color change approved first. China takes it one step further … the car registration book has registration and picture of your car. Probably can get a shop to help you for a couple 1,000 baht… try where you buy insurance you’ve already got a relationship. please post for everyone to see how it turned out Incase they face the same dilemma…
  20. OP can you access your closed account on BKK app? You could try getting 12 month statement emailed to you. Go to or call BKK Headquarters and hopefully get someone to help.
