But you didn't ask the bank staff what the chances were of the money being refunded? No point, I suppose, when there's Thaivisa!

You do?

He has the face of a Muslim [sic]? What? Can you distinguish the face of a Hindu? Or a Catholic? Or a Christian? Or an aetheist? Or a Buddhist? You don't know the difference between a race and a religion, do you? Jesus Christ...

"...here we have an uneducated grandmother ... hope I'm wrong..." You are wrong, try reading the OP properly.

Absolutely. It will never happen but at least the school staff are identified and not anonymous!

Why?

If you go to Phuket you will find out. No matter what documents you have on you, they will often ask for something else that carries an on the spot fine. I was responding to your claim made on this forum, there's no need for me to got to Phuket to find out when, if it is true, you could just detail a couple of specific "made up scooter rules" that you have personally experienced. I won't hold my breath.

Of course, they can't, AN has nothing to do with the account, they just aggregate news reports.

Wonderful gesture. Good that you let everyone know.

Your bizarre suggestion will never materialise, of course, but, even so, why do you gratuitously insult those Thai people by assuming that their clearly identifiable group, already in positions of responsibility who can be held to account, must be less honest and trustworthy than another group of (with all due respect) anonymous foreigners, of whom you know nothing and whose actions could never be validated and who would never have to answer to anyone? I'm not suggesting anything untoward about anyone I'm just making a comparison of two glaringly different groups (one hypothetical, of course).

What's your standing in the league table now?

Yes, some call it virtue signalling while the rest of the donors just get on with donating without shouting about it.

Well you know everything , so what did happen ? , Or, or you don't know , and just like criticizing everyones posts..... I did not criticise anyone's post, neither did I suggest that I had the answer, I asked a couple of questions, that's all. You do know that this is a forum, don't you? Opinions, observations or alternative views are the whole point of forums. Perhaps it's you who just likes criticising (and misinterpreting) the comments of those who don't agree with everything you write?

I think we know the answer. Do "we"? Why don't you tell us?

Perhaps he wasn't on the premises to be arrested? Or perhaps the manager was the owner? Or perhaps the owner has been arrested in the four days since the raid. Or, or ....!

Probably just cards issued by their own bankers and that could be a condition imposed on them by their banks.

Are you sure that you use a debit card, not a credit card? I don't understand what a "Bangkok Bank ATM / Bank card (which is also Mastercard Debit)" is, did you mean "I often use my debit card to pay at 7-11"? The OP and I have had our debit cards declined. Maybe 7-11's payment options have been updated recently.

Central accepts debit cards.

It is, as I've had the same response too. Sorry, which response, debit cards are acceptable or they're not?

That's interesting, I asked at my local 7-11 and was told debit cards weren't acceptable. Must try again.

No, not in the least.

A link??? Proof beyond all doubt. ???? It's more indication that it isn't a scam than it is. Don't worry about it, though, no one's forcing you to contribute.

You might want to think about why that upsets you It doesn't upset me, I just made an observation.

I wonder why you perceive what people have done as them being full of themselves and their posts as being self-congratulatory. (Actually, I don't.) Why else post what one's donation was? What possible other reason could there be? I did write "some people", not everyone.

Your source isn't that good, then.
