  1. I just received the form from SSA by mail. I have been sent this form before. I just fill it out and return it. It is a very short form where questions are asked and you just tick boxes yes or no then sign it. It's a simple form and nothing to worry about.
  2. Your dispute is with BA, not Bangkok Bank. Only BA can sort this out.
  3. I fail to understand why so many are against using an agent. I did all my own extensions and 90-day reports for twenty years, but started using an agent when the US Consulate in Chiang Mai stopped doing income verification letters. After that, I began using an agent. I usually kept several hundred thousand baht in the bank here, so I just made sure to have the required 400,000 in one account all of the time. My agent charges me 9,900 baht per year to do my extensions. That price includes the extension fee of 1,900 and all of my 90-day reports. My agents fee of 8,000 baht is well worth it to me since I don't have to prepare anything and only have to go to Immigration once a year which takes me less than 15 minutes. I never pay any fines because I follow all the rules and everyone at Immigration treats me very well.
  4. Get rid of double pricing and treat non Thai visitors and long-term expats with respect. Treat foreigners with Thai families the same way their Thai spouses are treated when living abroad. Clean up all the garbage and enforce traffic laws. I have lived here, worked here, and paid taxes here for more than thirty years, but I doubt I will ever see any of the improvements I mentioned during my lifetime.
  5. Good! That means I can rest assured that you will not be on any flights I might chose to take.
  6. I am not Thai and I will continue to wear a mask and distance myself from those who don't.
  7. What a stupid comment. This man is enlightened. What exactly do you mean with that silly term "woke"?
  8. Why UK excepted? Boris has certainly been a giant leap backwards.
  9. But she only lasted a few days. To be totally honest, anyone named Shinawatra would be wrong for the job. Thailand does not need any more family dynasties.
  10. I am a westerner who will continue wearing a mask, especially when I am anywhere near mindless foreigners who think they know it all and claim to have "god-given rights".
  11. They are private companies and they can simply refuse service. Many businesses in the West have signs posted at their entrances saying "No shirt, no shoes, no service".
  12. Actually, they are private companies that are open to the public - NOT public areas.
  13. What is important is not the name of the delivery company as long as they have the correct colored plate on their delivery vehicle,
  14. What do you expect from a guy named TOXIN?
