And I bet it had the International Transfer annotation too? I had similar but from the UK.

Ditto for your preferences.

i've only ever done that once just to try something out. I normally just set up a transfer and fund it from my UK bank, but that money never appears in my Wise account.

I'm glad I'm not an "urban professional" and don't want "Japanese omakase joints" or "three floors of curated retail". I also definitely don't want to live in a "hipster pocket" so I'll probably just pass on these places .

Using credit card to fund wise is the most expensive method for GBP, EUR, USD and probably more. Is there a reason you don't fund your transfers using a cheaper method? Example shown is for £1,000 GBP.

Out of interest, where were you sending from?

Nothing there for me.

It's in the title - Pak Kret. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Pak+Kret+District,+Nonthaburi/@13.8808045,100.4225076,11z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x30e285b0a3551ee9:0x3019237450c5160!8m2!3d13.9077337!4d100.4958678!16zL20vMDNoeXEx?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDUxMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

I called it earlier today without issues. From memory you select 2 for other languages then 1 for English then you get into the various menus.

No, it was a ranting post and parts of it incorrect. Take it one by one. First point "You still need a debit card to take money out of the ATM". Explained above that cardless withdrawals are almost everywhere now. Second "Canada did not shut just anyone down". A rant against the government actions I don't know enough about to refute but suspect there's a middle ground. A quick Google tells me the Federal Court later found that the freezing of bank accounts was unreasonable. No response to the China side of the point raised. Third "You keep paying with cash". What the poster actually said was "I will continue with cash for as long as possible as my main way of payments". Note the word main which indicates he does use alternatives when required. Finally, he quoted this but didn't respond to it. "I believe cash monitors your spending far better than flashing a QR code on your phone. for some people who just can't manage money, i think cash is better for them." which is a prefectly valid reason for some to continue with cash as a primary payment method. All in all the post from Patong2021 was just useless hot air.

My transaction documented on the previous page has arrived pretty much as predicted by Wise. The unusual thing (to me) about it is the Wise confirmation shows it as a local bank transfer and BBL show it as International. It did have the 2 o'clock-ish "International" timing even thought I hadn't specified the purpose as per the usual guidelines.

Duplicate thread. See here: https://aseannow.com/topic/1360637-appreciate-some-advice-please-2-items-below/

If the above doesn't work (I don't think it will) try Settings, System, Display, Scale and set it to 125% (Recommended). If it shows that already something may be corrupted so change it to something else then change it back. Check Display Resolution when you're in there too.

The most common reason I've heard of is that they know you live outside the UK and have mailed you a Proof of Life form. You haven't recieved it so unable to return it and they assume you've popped off this mortal coil. Call them and re-assure them you're alive. Someone else who has been through this will hopefully be along soon to explain the details, or there's been a few threads on it recently if you can find them.

Need more details. What are you is your friend intending to bring?

Yes, it's a 777 but there are 3 newer airframes with a first class cabin which operate TG910/911. These are not down to be retrofitted so should keep the 3-3-3 in economy.

An unusual one for me today. Transferring from UK bank to BBL and used to it being almost instantaneous from several years experience. This morning (so not a weekend or a holiday at either end AFAIK) it tells me it won't arrive until tomorrow. Not a large amount of money so no issues due to size of the transaction. Instead of proceeding I did a transfer to my Wise balance (instantaneous) then set up the transfer again funding it from this balance and again was told it won't be there until tomorrow. I proceed with the transaction and it's currently saying the same as shown here. If I set up the same again now it's again saying tomorrow for receipt so at least they're upfront about telling me, just no reason for the unusual behaviour. I won't stop using them for this change which might just be temporary, but would like to know what's behind it out of curiosity.

Alrady answered above I believe in that a fee only applies to USD and CAD.

They've not started yet, and if you're flying to London you can always chose TG910 as the aircraft operating these flights will not be affected.

Incorrect. They don't have Section 75 protection but they do have chargeback protection, which is what you would use on credit cards too for purchase of £100 GBP or less.

What makes you think that?

It doesn't work based on addresses but on location. Every phone within range of the masts putting out the warning signal will receive it if capable and set up to do so.

A friend was in a similar situation a few months ago, albeit a different category of damage, and got refused boarding at BKK by the airline. What he did was rebook his flight for a couple of days later then used the auto check-in, auto bag drop and auto immigration gates to leave so having no contact with any airline staff or IO until the perfunctory name check against boarding pass at the gate. He flew to the UK and entered without a problem, again using the egates. When in the UK he tried to make a same day passport appointment but this can't be done if you mention it's damaged so he left that bit out. He got a bit of grief from the lady he dealt with in the passport office, but got a new one anyway. If you're planning a trip home anyway, my advice would be to follow that route to exit Thailand and return home, then use the regular channels to replace the damaged passport while in the UK.

Another LK Metro bar owner posted about 3 hours ago he'd be open as usual today (Saturday 10th) and tomorrow.

Halifax Clarity does charge interest, as you say, but if paid off immediately the transaction shows it would be minimal. No further charges apply. If he had the Barclaycard Rewards CC he wouldn't even have any interest on cash advances to worry about if he pays the statement in full by the due date. Without knowing how much he'd spend and on what it's all guesswork, but a CC (or the right DC) could be a practical solution.
