Wedding Savings Stolen
The Fugitive replied to The Fugitive's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Accept that these things happen and don't worry about it? 950,000 baht is a huge amount to a Thai. The problem is that you can't prove something that you didn't do. -

Unacceptable is the word. My Mrs says she's moved her money from her SCB to her Bangkok Bank account. I say withdraw it and keep it under the mattress! -
Wedding Savings Stolen
The Fugitive replied to The Fugitive's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I posted as a warning to others and because I feel sorry for the guy who is engaged to a nurse at our local hospital and daughter of a friend of my Mrs. As Cambodia is outside RTP's jurisdiction I assume that is the reason. My experience albeit with UK banks is that the onus is on the customer to prove that they didn't make the transfer. Going to a solicitor would result in a huge bill with no guarantee of success. -
Thai policeman friend has lost his wedding savings of 950,000 baht. Money transferred from his <bank name redacted - please PM poster> Bank account to a bank account in Cambodia. Thai police unable to proceed. <bank name redacted - please PM poster> Bank say nothing can be done.

Where should/will an agent register me?
The Fugitive replied to trax33's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Personally, I've never been grilled by an IO. They obviously know Visa Agents exist and what they do. Wanting to change your method of obtaining future extensions seems a perfectly reasonable thing to do. -

Certainly. Khon Kaen. -

In my experience my IO appeared to know I'd used a Visa Agent previously but was more than happy to deal with me 'direct' in future. That's what I've done since. -

The IO noticed 'Chonburi' stamped into my passport and that equalled Visa Agent to them. -

Visa Exempt Entries and Tourist Visa's are still of some use. Then there's always Angeles City! -
Excellent resolution! You would expect Kerry to say that they only deliver the parcels, in this case you accepted and paid for it and must sort it out with Shopee.

I thought healthcare in Thailand was supposed to be cheap?
The Fugitive replied to Startmeup's topic in Health and Medicine
Most reassuring that our NHS is working as it should! They do like sending SMS. Please let us know how you go on. -
I message them through my TrueiService mobile app ('Get Support'). No problem.

Search on Facebook (TrueMove H). Send message, they reply in English.

PEA found out meter is spinning backward
The Fugitive replied to eddysacc's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Not being an electrical engineer myself I don't fully understand. Are you referring to the situation in Australia where the supply becomes unstable due to the number of 'micro power stations' feeding into the National Grid affecting the flywheel effect of their power stations? -
PEA found out meter is spinning backward
The Fugitive replied to eddysacc's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Totally unsatisfactory situation. You are worrying about having gone 'green'. PEA/MEA need to think more clearly. Reversing your meter thus producing a credit balance upon your electricity account is their nightmare. The solution would be that all excess juice produced by your panels gets fed into the National Grid and you, quite rightly, receive Feed In Tariff for it. -
18 months custodial for possession? Seems extremely harsh unless the quantity involved was deemed excessive for personal use only. That could be an arguing point. Unfortunately, we're talking about UK. In some Countries possession isn't a criminal offence. For touristic application go with BritManToo's advice. Disclosure at this stage will guarantee refusal. If it comes to the crunch a Visa Agent/Fixer will be the way to go.
