    That's correct - voice (and SMS) use mobile networks and that's what you need for OTPs etc. Data uses the internet and is not required.

    TT Exchange Booths' rates are not the Telegraphic Transfer rates being referred to here. The latter are the rate that banks convert your "foreign remittance" at. You appear to be mixing the two.

    I'm sure this is discussed often in the "Mobile Devices & Apps" forum https://aseannow.com/forum/146-mobile-devices-apps/ and from what I recall these "good" packages need a new phone number every year.

    Entering the UK on a UK passport has no validity restrictions - it could even be expired and she'd still get in.

    I agree. I read your previous post as indicating that they wanted a flight out within 30 days even though the Visa Waiver period had been extended to 45 days. Escalation would have solved this if it had been the case without the need of a waiver IMO.

    I agree an onward flight will most likely be checked for but what I said was they've not been asking for a flight out within 30 days since the visa exemption duration was increased, as wpcoe claimed. They've been looking for a flight out within 45 days.

    They've not been asking for that during the period when visa exempt entry has been increased to 45 days. If a checkin agent has asked then it would be soon be fixed on escalation

    Many recent reports here recently that reminders are not being received.

    I use Wise as a first choice and Xendpay as my backup.

    Geolocking is nothing to do with IP address but the home country of your Google Account as mentioned upthread, so a VPN will have no effect on its accessibility

    Not quite if you work on the premise that if you take no up front lump sum but take the tax free amount as part of your regular income (based on these figures) would give you: Income £40,000 Taxable Income £30,000 (25% or £10,000 is tax free) Tax Payable £3,486 (20% of £30,000 -£12,4570 PTA)

    It may be geolocked and therefore not accessible using a Thailand based account. You can create another account based in the UK, login and download, or else download from somewhere other than the Play Store. I found this location - it's an older version but updates will process regardless of the geolock. https://apklust.com/en/nationwide-banking-app-down-apk

    I was definitely referring to DC type pensions but a quick google search threw up this article which suggests it's also true for DB pensions, although not so simplistic and different rules may apply across different providers. https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/pensions/article-9574993/Should-25-tax-free-lump-sum-final-salary-pension.html

    He/she meant foreign currency transactions (counter withdrawals in this case) not transfers, which with the right card is true.

    I don't think E-Extensions are available yet for Non Imm O Marriage visas, and even if they were it's Bangkok only.

    Qatar will give you a free change if they change away from a Qsuite aircraft. Pic is from a few years ago but it's still the case today, however they make so many changes it's often difficult to time it right and be sure of a Qsuite.

    To talk to a human on Air Asia live chat rather than the bot. Type "Change email" to bot. Ignore responses until you see a "Talk to all star" button. Click on the button. Enter requested details. You'll be put in the queue for a human.

    Their teacher probably doesn't allow voice calls in class time.

    In a recent thread on the same subject someone suggested shining a laser pen at them would get rid of them.
