    Worse than that, if you call them to try and get a refund they're saying you are cancelling and want to charge a cancellation fee!

    It does look much thinner but the bottom hinges down to open it up for a standard connector. Your current cable should do.

    To allow access to the height adjustment of the rollers.

    I know it's just another "expert" opinion, but this video claims US Social Security, UK State Pension, AUS and other country's equivalent benefit are all classified as Social Security and therefore not taxed in Thailand. About the 21 minute mark where she refers to the non-discrimination clause meaning foreigners must be treated the same as Thais.

    If this is the page you are referring to there is no mention of immigration requiring any sort of tax form as per your previous post. https://pcec.club/Pattaya-Revenue-Offices

    Pity the fool is the expression that springs to mind upon reading this. You've been persuaded by crazy threads like here on Aseannow that there was a requirement to file tax info and further persuaded that failing to do so will affect your status with immigration. Please don't respond to any threads offering to sell you a bridge.

    Maybe a real US mobile number or is that too left field?

    US Social Security is not taxed in Thailand.

    This was ianguygil I believe, but he appears to no longer be visiting the site.

    Yes it is, you just have to tunnel down to the right level.

    As mentioned above, Swift is often better for larger USD transactions, such as your case, as it's the most commonly traded currency and spreads are tight, but the OP appears to use GBP which tends to have a much bigger spread and means Wise may well be the better choice.

    Price is different in his other thread.

    It was in Krabi according to other sources.

    You may be asked to show an onward ticket showing you're leaving Cambodia.

    I'm not the guy you asked, but if I may chip in here I recall this being discussed before. I'm quoting from a previous thread where it was mentioned: There followed some debate about whether this only related to Thai Social Security or Social Security from other countries too, but this may be what the poster is referring too.
  20. treetops
    Really? You've never mentioned it before!

    For TT yes, but Wise use their own mid-market rate which is always better. When the banks have a low spread between buying and selling (eg USD) then Swift will win after a point, but when the higher spread is larger than Wise' percentage charge then Wise will always win. I'm sure that's the case for GBP which is what you are discussing. Happy to be proved wrong if someone crunches the numbers, but that's been my take on it recently.

    Or if they can't remember they can always use The Orange Alligator Sat On His Cornflakes And Hiccuped.

    Glad this is in the Pub forum and hopefully won't attract the usual income tax nonsense like all the other threads.

    Plenty of these signs on South Road. Two languages and a widely recognised symbol for no parking.
