I am planning to drive from CM to Buriram by car with 1 one-night stop at Phitsanulok. Do you have any idea if driving around 7 April will be fine in terms of Songkran traffic? When it usually begins and ends. I plan to go on 6-7th April and come back 20th April. I don't want to get caught in traffic madness before or after Songkran. Does anyone know if the dates for my trip are fine?

Max transaction per day is 5mil on my app, but daily limit can be adjusted.

MAJOR UPDATE: Apparently, it was a deposit returned for a car purchase a while ago. They did not even say that they sent the deposit.. My wife randomly messaged someone from the dealership and asked if they made the transfer. I suspected it could be it, but the transfer should have come from their company account, anyways it came from a personal account.

I will be on alert.. if someone calls me and asks to give the money back, I'll just say I will go to a branch and handle it from there..

Yeah, but credits, you probably should see in your banking app where it came from, something like "credited". I think our situations are different cause I received it from a person.

Thinking of that, how silly they can be when sending money to a different account, especially if you see a foreigner's name on the transfer before clicking the confirm button.

I know the money is not mine, but I could just say I did not see the transfer and wait it out. And no, no originating account, only 4 middle digits and the first name of the sender.

The bank shows but its partially masked, so I don't know the exact number, only 4 middle digits.

As title says, I received 10k baht from an unknown person. Should I contact the bank or just wait it out and wait them to contact me, it's small amount compared to balance I have in bank, if I did not check random activity I would not even notice this transfer. What happens if I just wait it out, I really don't have time walking around to branch or making calls and resolving this issue which is not even my fault..

You might be right. I am just speaking from an experience on the farms that I have been to. (South) Just don't understand why Thais would tolerate such treatment from the employer, including passport withholding. And obviously, such employers who treat foreign workers that way should be jailed and their land/farm taken. Hopefully, the Israeli government will take more action.

Read about the Thailand-Israel Employment Cooperation (TIC). They are treated very well, and some make even more money than the local Israelis who work at factories for minimum wage. Thai farmers agree by themself to work OT, no one is forcing them. I am also speaking from an experience as someone who lived in Israel with my Thai wife; we visited some places where they work because in some places where they work, there are also Thai stores nearby, and my wife used to buy Thai products there. I spoke with a random Thai farmer regarding his salary, and he said it is around 80k-120k baht a month. They also get discounts from the Thai stores over there. As for healthcare, there is healthcare that employer provides access to, it's required by law.

How long does it takes the whole coating procedure? I need only the hood, all car is already coated but I replaced the hood due to accident, now its brand new but no coating yet. Can I take car after coating the same day they apply it, considering I live 5 minutes from the coating place?

it's weird, so why did the dealer ask for the original passport? It was not some random dealer it was an authorized BMW..

Such a pain in ass this whole procedure, I am married and submitted all the documents you stated above, they accepted them and told me there is a queue so you might need to wait 2-3 months. I am waiting 8 months already, nothing from them. Called them once, they said they will call me back within a hour, no one called.. Sorry for my useless comment, just saying for me it is a real pain in ass obtaining these documents.

in kasikorn you can do 5mil daily but 2mil per transaction, anyways you can do 2mil,2mil,1mil within minutes. So yeah, setting a daily limit is important.
