  1. Garbage. There is an official, well-signposted 'proper taxi' rank at the airport for arrivals that does not require a SIM, app or phone, at all! That taxi "monopoly", to use your word, is the sort of "monopoly" that should be celebrated because, for a B50 official fee, from the official stand all taxis have to use meters. If the driver says he won't use the meter there are hundreds of others in the queue that will. If they don't and they are reported, they are banned from using the airport. The limousine service is not "exploiting the situation", the limousine service is a passive service there for people who approach its desk, the limousine service does not tout for passengers.
  2. They dont use a meter to go from province to province. You seem to be the one misleading the masses. I myself were charged this price from airport to Pattaya, so theres truth in my words Yes, there's may be a little truth in your claim but the vast majority of passengers do not travel inter-province using airport taxis! Taxis from the official taxi stand at the airport have to use their meters, if they don't want to, you do not have to take that taxi and can report it to the staff at the stand. That is fact and is not "misleading" anyone.
  3. Well done, I'm very happy for you but why address that to me? I did not promote or support cryptos in any way!
  4. Bolt Thailand doesn't offer a "Limousine Class"! Maybe you opted for the more plebian "Comfort Class".
  5. "we are talking today, not the past, sorry for my silly assumptions" I wasn't, I never mentioned present day and you weren't making assumptions, you were just not reading what I posted correctly! Glad that you understand your errors now. You've forgotten to copy the part from my comments where, you alleged, I "was promoting cryptos", when can you show me those recommendations here?
  6. they couldn't make certain transactions in USD for a while until the whole thing was settled Wow. That must have been all over the global financial news and knocked seven bells out of it's stock prices if the UK's biggest bank had it's services suspended in the US, how come there's no mention of it anywhere? When do you claim that was? What HSBS operations were suspended in the US? I believe it is false to state that HSBC's facilities/services have ever been suspended by the Fed.
  7. Well they're sure not obliged to provide free phone services!
  8. Yes, preventing unauthorised persons accessing your money was such a terrible thing for the bank to do.
  9. How long were you on the phone for in order to have to pay B1000 as you are claiming and which phone service provider?
  10. What does that mean, "HSBC got blacklisted"? They're not banned, boycotted or sanctioned in the US, they may have been fined for transgressions but most banks have!
  11. Hold fire on your BS assertion. UK is not Europe! Normal (not Covid-delayed!) time for signed-for Royal Mail from UK to Bangkok is about 5 days, maybe 7 days maximum. I got a renewed UK driving licence sent from UK, it took 5 days...as per normal.
  12. 1. I have not promoted cryptos. If you think I have copy and paste my promotion of them in your reply so everyone can see! 2. I'm not an FA now, I used to be an IFA, USED TO BE. you really don't understand tenses? That's how I know that you're wrong when you said that I "could never be an FA anywhere"!
  13. Oh my good gawd. From my original post... "If the movement was actually replaced by a cheap quartz item that's failing, just get another cheap movement fitted, they cost next to nothing".
  14. You can do it from the banking app. To be notified of all transactions by SMS needs BBL's 'Super SMS' service. It has to be applied for at a branch (any branch) and costs B30 pm. It is not available through the app.
  15. To be notified of all transactions by SMS needs BBL's 'Super SMS' service. It has to be applied for at a branch (any branch) and costs B30 pm.
  16. There's a big difference between deposits being insured in the case of a bank going to the wall and irregular transactions on individuals' accounts. In the case of the latter, fraudulent transactions are usually corrected/reversed by the bank.
  17. And that was what I explained to you. You "explained" something that didn't need explaining! Read my original comment where I referred to quartz movements, not "digital" movements.
  18. in Cyprus? or UK? if you are in the UK, then you do realize that "promotions" of cryptos like you do expose you eventually to serious violations You really need to read my comments properly, nowhere did i say that I recommended cryptos! I was challenging your claim that I "could never be an FA, anywhere", you are wrong. Take a look at the tense I used in my comment that you quoted above also!
  19. I think the point was that a registered FA would not do this, in fear of being fined. That was not my point!
  20. Which machine was the culprit or was he shocked by the two different machines in the photo?
  21. Where specifically? Useful information to have.
  22. She's a truthful book reader? Glad to hear it, nothing better than a bit of honesty!
  23. you couldn't be a registered FA, an unregistered FA, is not a FA, he is a self-promoter or sell person, that's what I meant I could be a registered (regulated) FA. I was an FA (an IFA)!
