Sending money to Thailand
treetops replied to Mac Mickmanus's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I just saw an advert yesterday saying WU collections could now be made at 711's which might make it easier for the recipient. -

How to contact a human at Air Asia?
treetops replied to edwardandtubs's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
Type "change email" into Ava. Ignore all the suggestions and replies and wait until you get a button "Talk to Allstar". Press it, enter the details requested and you'll get a real person responding. -
Pattaya Traffic Police crackdown on Bolt drivers
treetops replied to Social Media's topic in Pattaya News
Grab and Bolt both currently working in Pattaya - I used them both yesterday. Grab was unusually cheaper on one occasion as Bolt's surge pricing (fireworks demand I presumed) trebled the usual fare on my route. Bolt also work fine in Hua Hin. -
That PEA office is long gone.

Departure card shows future leaving date
treetops replied to timoti's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

Wise as a bank account for my pensions
treetops replied to poppysdad's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
FCA licences are issued to many companies offering financial services, not only banks. For Wise the FCA licence lists under "Activities and services": For a typical High Street Bank this would be: Wise are not a bank in the eyes of the FCA, no matter how many times you post that image. -
Open UK Bank account from Thailand
treetops replied to Gabe H Coud's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I made no suggestion that the government was efficient enough to use the information to their advantage, only that the information is there if they were to look for it (in most cases). Border Force exit checks are not required. -
WISE Card is accepted in supermarkets?
treetops replied to lyskamm's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I have a couple of fee free cards from the UK. My understanding is that the Visa and MC exchange rates are slightly below the interbank rate that Wise use. That slight difference gives Visa/MC their fee when I use an ATM. The banks providing my cards have full protection. -
Open UK Bank account from Thailand
treetops replied to Gabe H Coud's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
The government know when you leave through the airline API system which informs the UK government of the details of everyone on a flight originating, ending or transiting through the UK. If the will was there that information could be passed to other government departments. -
I know, hence my question. It was you that suggested to uninstall it which didn't make sense.

Tap Translate Screen app. Draw a box round the Thai text with the on-screen cursor and it'll translate the contents of the box. Fiddly to start with but you get used to it.

Nope - uninstall a browser or delete activity/history is what it says, that's why I asked the poster who recommended it.

How do you uninstall a website you access with your laptop browser?

If it was an overpayment while he was alive they can do this. If it was to rectify a payment made after his death (maybe a timing issue in his death being reported and filtering through the system) they may ask for its repayment but there is no legal need to pay it. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/2022/01/dwp-has--no-legal-power--to-force-you-to-repay-pension-or-benefi/

The IATA site is Timatic. I like to use the Emirates interface to it which can be found here: https://www.emirates.com/uk/english/before-you-fly/visa-passport-information/ It confirms the information used by the airlines has been updated to reflect the change to 45 days on arrival for visa exempt entry. Here's the data for a British passport holder:
