  1. I have to agree on that. I wouldn't say it's illegal but it's not allowed at the Bangkok Bank. Recently my bank book was out sync with my passport and they would not allow a transaction until the bank book corresponded with my passport. Cost me half a day hissing around trying to sort it.
  2. Not my plomplem. Go ask a policeman.
  3. Yes. Section 77. Parental Condition Violations.
  4. Standard law practice around the world. Known as 'parental reasonability'. Google is yer friend. And as a side thought. https://www.thailandlawonline.com/thai-family-and-marriage-law/civil-law-parentage-right-and-duties-parent-and-child
  5. Being underage the parent are responsible and therefore liable.
  6. No I cannot see that happening. Passport only for farangs at Bangkok Bank. You can only open an account with one nothing else as a farang. And for every transaction a passport has to be shown and up to date. I got refused tuther month cuz my account hadn't been updated to my new passport. No other form of identity permitted.
  7. No no no no. There's times when checking you can get it. I just bought a water dispenser on Lazada. The lowest priced one advertised free shipping. I saved delivery of 170 Baht.
  8. I use the same office and they do indeed take copies of the Yellow and Blue books.
  9. What is it with Lazada and free shipping? Many times I see 'Shipping Free' when looking at an item. But when I click the buy option the 'Shipping Free' option has gone and a 'Shipping Fee' is displayed and added to the price. I never buy when the seller(?) does that. Surely it's wrong?
  10. BS. What are those 'daily transactions' you do that the bank seems to ignore? Banks are strict in Thailand with regards to procedure due to 'money laundering'. I cannot see your bank allowing you to skirt their security rules in not showing your passport. It leaves them vulnerable.
  11. Absolutely correct. And as a matter of course they will take a photocopy to which you must sign. Too much BS from members now for this thread to carry on.
  12. Many many people stay in Thailand long term without acquiring a Pink ID card or a Yellow book. If there was any real benefit they'd be fighting to get them. But they're not. If I had my time over again I wouldn't bother with either.
  13. You don't. You should have a medical card somewhat the same as the Thais. You just hand this into records on your arrival to get confirmation you are on their books.
  14. I cannot get my name put in a Blue Book hence why one of the reasons why I obtained a Yellow Book. Even with Yellow Book I'm not allowed my name to be entered into a Blue Book.
  15. Good for you and I hope that applies to all soi dogs as well?
  16. 17 years here. No serious advantages getting a 'Yellow Book'. I originally applied for it cuz they said farangs could get free medical treatment if they had one. I went through a lot of palaver to to get one only for the Thai government decided to renege on that. Don't waste yer time applying for a 'Yellow Book'. No real advantages. It'll get you a 'Pink Card' but that ain't much better .
