  1. Very helpful info, thank you.
  2. As 'fdsa' informs, we need to do other things in addition to using a VPN such as change time zone setting on PC to where you wish to appear to be and ensure language settings are US only.
  3. When Surf Shark admitted that banks can tell your location, are they referring to Country only, not town and street?
  4. No web based access for the neo banks I've recently joined. Mobile app only. Makes you think.
  5. At least they didn't lie. But it seems worse than we thought. Not only can they tell you're using a VPN but can tunnel their way back through it to see where you really are.
  6. Brother-in-law's total in June was 150,000. Mother-in-law's in September was 200,000.
  7. There must be many in USA facing this same problem. I'm from UK so pardon my ignorance, but are the banking regulations federal or do they differ in each State? There are US overseas territories. Do the territories have the same banks as The States? Or do they have their own? Or both? Other than that, although it will cost, the legal professions being the rogues that they are sure to know workarounds.
  8. Are there USA banks that will allow you to have an address abroad and will send renewed/replacement debit/credit cards to Thailand?
  9. Don't forget, you get 30 days in which to test. If it doesn't do all you require they will refund your subscription in full. I did the same firstly with ZenMate which was slightly cheaper at the time. Everything else worked except it wouldn't unblock BBCiPlayer. I complained a couple of times to be told 'we're working on it'. However, by day 29 it still wasn't unblocked so I got my money back, paid in full within a few days.
  10. Absolutely will. But he will be catergorised as either; High, Medium or Low Risk. He has to report time spent away from his home address for the duration of his registration period. At the discretion of his offender manager he may be prohibited from flying to certain Countries (certainly The Philippines). If it is suspected that he may fly onwards from his original reported destination, an Interpol Green Notice could be issued.
  11. Thai's like social events. Free food and drink (even karaoke too). Try inviting the Customer Service team, supervisor and manager to your house for the evening?
  12. Yes, proved it myself. Windows XP too!
  13. Could the point be Covid (even if you were asymptomatic and therefore unaware) has had a long lasting weakening effect?
  14. Unusual and morally good I suppose. However, it didn't help you. Thanks for posting. Very interesting and helpful.
  15. Glad you are now sorted and thanks for letting us know!
  16. In my case, the people on the Customer Service desk and their supervisor were the problem. As soon as we spoke to their boss, I got my yellow book/pink card. Could you find out who is in charge and approach them (preferably friendly and unofficially) say at some local event?
  17. Brought a tear to my eye, truly. Good on you Sir!
  18. Very true, 1910. Also, Dr. Crippen was almost certainly guilty based on circumstantial evidence and his behaviour both before and after the event. Police continue to fit people up though. My point was that our guy may have lacked the confidence to defend himself and/or may have believed the police were determined to convict him. Fleeing the Country guaranteed his conviction. Had he remained, the outcome may have been different.
  19. Or, (as in IF as above) could be coincidence. Whatever the virus/infection was would have cleared up naturally without antibiotics.
  20. The image has definitely improved. 50 years ago huge smirking oafs took delight in bellowing in your face (I've had some of that). Perhaps it's the raising of educational requirements or, more likely, everyone possessing mobile 'phones with cameras?
  21. It is. I like the absence of roaming gangs of muggers, thugs and vandals. Things do get stolen but the neighbours and police instantly seem to know whodunnit!
  22. Fair comment. But when police boast to you that they have 'doubled up the counts' to make the outcome worse then you lose respect for them and begin to think what else do they do? Fortunately, in my case, the CPS barrister was not happy that the police had done this and told the judge. The detective in court went ballistic and told her to "remember whose side you are on".
  23. Not an obscure case and not American although Dr. Crippen and his wife were from USA. Point is, if you know the cops are going to fit you up and especially that you're going to hang the best thing to do is flee the Country. If you had a word with some retired police officers, they would confirm that malicious accusations of rape are common. As someone else has already stated, the guy should have remained to face the music. A jury may have found in his favour.
  24. Disputed doesn't mean they are wrong of course. The pathologist involved was 'suspect'. Those police officers would not only have fitted up Dr. Crippen during their careers. Pardoning Dr. Crippen would open up a can of worms. The British Criminal Justice system is rotten to the core.
  25. Meaningless fees and amounts. Without the power to arrest or force entry into your home there is no way of collecting the debt.
