Quite agree. It's very likely that the bank will invite the account-holder to make a personal appearance at one of their branches. Yes...or ask her why her name doesn't show on the electoral register at the fake address she provides or why she cannot produce utility bills in her name. In reality the bank will realise that she is obviously lying (it knows she lives in Thailand) and won't bother to investigate, it'll just send her notification that the account is closing and ask her where would she like the balance sending.

Chickenslegs has given you the only reasonable answer...Wise or her Thai bank. Or an offshore account (IOM or Channel Islands)

She has no choice, the bank is closing the account, not her. After she tells the bank that she, magically, has suddenly become UK resident again (immediately after the bank's advice) with the bank knowing that she hasn't, don't you think think that they will check? They will.

So tell 'em you've moved back. To an address that they cannot show is theirs when the bank asks them...as it will when it doesn't check out? The bank knows that they live in Thailand.

Until the bank queries it! Funny how she's suddenly got a new UK address that she's not registered at while living, with the banks knowledge, in Thailand for years! Not so simple.

Phi Phi Don was developed last century as a cocoanut plantation and the monkeys were likely brought there for harvesting. Past tourists have also fed the them creating the problem today. With the number of people bitten at Monkey Beach on a daily basis perhaps TAT should not promote the place. The other five injections around the bite site were likely rabies immunoglobulin. Then a shot of rabies vaccine in the arm followed by another four spaced over time. Why are you telling me all that?

Yes, I know that but that was not what I was posting about. I'm glad that you accept that you are as equally responsible for your government's actions as the Russian visitors are for their governments actions, i.e. neither you nor they are individually responsible for a country's actions as you claimed the Russians in Thailand are. That's what I posted.

So what? What actually happened was a damn stupid and irresponsible Aussie tried to interact with wild monkeys for financial benefit...can't he do anything right?

Would never happen to the monkey.

As nonsensical as the chronic "another nail in the coffin of Thailand's tourism" comments.

Why? Because they deliberately did something remarkably stupid by wanting interaction with wild monkeys?

...to benefit from the extra income her ride generated for them.

Amazing resemblance. You mean the one with her name on her jacket?

Well done. You take the award for being the first one.

No it wouldn't but it would encourage the notoriously dangerous wild animals to rely on humans for food which isn't very smart.

Probably with consent of the victim and the privilege of the driver. He'll be named when it goes to court.

As was clearly stated in the headline and referenced about ten times in the article.

He didn't need it 993 days ago. How could you know what a Russian, not returning to his home country in the best part of three years, needed?

Have you got a week? I've answered this before, so I won't repeat myself. They are all individually and collectively responsible for what their criminal government are doing in Ukraine, in the name of the Russian people. Nonsense, none of them are "responsible for the Russian government's actions anymore than you are individually responsible for some of the stupid actions of your own government...unless you have information about some of those individuals in Thailand.

Was that directed at me?

If you cannot see a vehicle with sidelights on in a car park perhaps you shouldn't be driving?

Bit arrogant to think that it's your job to do that by overtaking closely and fast and then veering back to the left. Seems that your driving leaves a lot to be desired.

Perhaps they got his permission after he regained consciousness, they weren't streaming it live. Regardless, specifically how would it have contravened the Act if they hadn't asked first and which section of that Act do you have in mind?

Why? What have the Russian civilian visitors here done to justify your upsetting them?

"Let’s look at facts". Yes, lets...those "facts" are opinions of some scientists.
