  1. Which international news agencies have you lobbied? Can you give us a sample of your lobbying letters that you sent?!
  2. No point in having an account that is useless for online purchases in a month or so that will be closed anyway, that's why. The accounts will not be closed "forcefully", they'll just be closed or deactivated as PP has been warning existing account holders for a long time. Non-Thais are not suddenly going to be allowed to register with passports in the next six weeks, they've had plenty of time to facilitate that if it was going to happen. PayPal will not "have to explain" anything to shareholders about why the Thai authorities introduced this regulation. I doubt that any of them will care about a handful of indignant affected expats in Thailand whose contributions to PP's revenues will likely be 5/8 of 'uck all.
  3. If it's so then Paypal should offer an explanation and not just say they are closing our accounts End Off "...just say they are closing our accounts End Off". That's not what is happening, anyone who bothers to call the Thailand office will be told why it is happening, it's no big secret. I called yesterday, the rep told me the reason, then I closed my account.
  4. I've entered all zeros and it got accepted If you say so but it conflicts with the response that I received. What's the point anyway, you don't think that the "zeros" registration will sail through at the next step, do you?
  5. The Thailand office will tell you the same also but some Thaivisa posters just want to bash PayPal, irrationally, for something that's out of PP's hands, for some reason.
  6. "They don't use NDID I presume because they don't want to exclude foreigners and that's a Thai company". PayPal Thailand is a Thai company, also.
  7. "...you couldn't link to a Thai bank account. So it was limited to credit cards". Really? The PayPal account that I've had here for years has only ever been linked to my local banks' debit cards.
  8. Presumably, if it was something that PP could easily do, they'd do it. The government regs are what's stopping PP offering an alternative to Non-Thais.
  9. That doesn't work (unless the guess miraculously coincides with a real ID number, I suppose, but that might open a real can of identity theft worms), I tried a random number yesterday before I closed my PP account.
  10. Why wouldn't it be easy doing it the way it has to be done?
  11. The first thing that PP requires for a new account is a Singapore phone number, then it would require details of your Singapore bank account. Once the new PP account is set up that way, I believe you can request that another country's bank card details can be added.
  12. You're assuming that PayPal Thailand has been given that option under the regulations they have to abide by.
  13. "I see PayPal at fault here, not the Thai authorities ... why PayPal can't or won't do the same is anyone's guess." PP has to follow the government regulations, perhaps PP wasn't given any other option.
  14. PayPal (Thailand) Limited, the holder of an Electronic Money Service License (License No. Bor(2) 022/2561), an Authorized Electronic Money Business Operator License (FX e-Money License) (License No. FE12564001), a Payment Facilitating Service License (License No. Bor(3.2) 025/2561) and an Electronic Fund Transfer Service License (License No. Bor(4) 051/2561).
  15. You're acting as though it isn't definitive and something else is. The BP article does, categorically, state that she had just returned with him, does Thai Rath categorically state that she wasn't with him? Didn't think so.
  16. But you don't know which regulation so I guess that's why you don't really answer the question lol. I do know which regulation, it's the regulation that requires PayPal Thailand account holders to register via the NDID system. If you need forensic details of it, research it yourself. If you think that I'm wrong, just say so.
  17. She didn't, she was with him in Germany, as has been pointed out already.
  18. What's a government regulation? Do foreigners need a Thai ID to open a Thai Bank Account? A government regulation is a regulation introduced by the government and is what is causing the changes to PayPal Thailand accounts. Foreigners do not need Thai ID to open a bank account.
  19. No, it's a government regulation, not something dreamed up by PP.
  20. PayPal Thailand is (not for long for some) exactly the same.
  21. Who, in their right mind, would use PayPal to transfer "millions or billions"? We can all transfer legitimate millions or billions if we need to, just not through PayPal.
  22. PayPal haven't said that and PP didn't introduce the regulations.
