  1. It does by looking at the bank book, as long as they can read! where in the rules does it say they want 12 month statements if you are going the 800k route? my account never drops below anyway
  2. You have to update the book on the day you apply for an extension put in 100 baht and get the bank to copy the book. They have the book, copies and the letter, why would they need statements?
  3. Samut Prakan only want the simple letter and photo copies of bank book, unless the rules have changed in the past few months, CW also only wanted that last time I got an extension there in 2011. But they wont give you a line number without showing a TM30 print out

  5. Did they give you a receipt?
  6. It helps some people, perhaps he requested the visit
  7. Never been asked for a statement just a simple letter with the balance, must vary from office to office like a lot of other things
  8. They stiff you as soon as you get out of the airport and get in a taxi, or highway robber.
  9. No thanks, went in 96, i'll never go back there, ghastly place and over priced.
  10. Hopefully he wont be happy on May 22nd ????
  11. Compared to real attractions like the ones in Italy for example the so called ones here are often vastly over priced.
  12. I hate even hearing about the lottery these days. Did the Euro lottery at home last April, almost did it on Tues 19th but but put the entry paper back thinking I'll do it on Friday for a few goes. Did it Friday 22nd, got a funny look from the woman on the till in W H Smiths. When I checked the next week to see how many numbers I had it came up winning (104 million euro) but not for the Friday, for the Tuesday. Def not seen the results or any news only been back a few days, but on the 19th millions had entered and not won, I go in on the Friday and stick the numbers in for the wrong day. Quite depressed for a week.???? Never do it again even here.
  13. 81k would not have gone far even in a government hospital these days
  14. The ancient city is a waste of money at any price IMO, just new reproductions, concrete city more like
  15. Nobody forces them to work for more than Thai teachers get!
  16. If the Chinese had any intention to co operate these killers would already have been arrested, they know where they are.
  17. But only temporary, should be 10 days for Chinese ????
  18. It was 44 baht to the pound when I first came in 1994.
  19. Would you make a film about New York using Thai music? probably not so why use western sound tracks on Thai locations, always seems so jarring, and lazy. Before anyone claims copy write, unless you use Grammy material thats not true.
  20. why not as he and his sister were both illegally ousted from power. Not sure black hole is still in use there days.
  21. He did not want security advice says he is an experienced 'monger'- sex tourist ???? who can't find a tart in an open air brothel!
  22. Not the real Issan maybe that's why. His material is mostly a Regency Brandy type fantasy view of Thailand. Have a look at the latest upload, soft focus, sentimental footage with soppy western lyrics, and an Elephant of course. He ought to be working for TAT, very little to do with issan. He did do a short piece 8 years ago on morlam, since then the nearest he got to Issan appears to be covering Nana Plaza!
  23. still need 400k in the bank for the right time
  24. Chinese woman round the corner had similar problem, but not quite the 400k, she just stuck 1k note in the passport handing it over, nothing was said and she got the extension. Or go the agent route.
  25. It's a gamble what ever you do. I remember Kev in Pattaya, who the OP refers to, saying he had a friend paying into BUPA for ten years. When he got cancer the amount the insurer paid for was about the same as the premiums he had paid in. After 75 the premiums become very expensive and you never know if they will pay up or even not go bust before you need them. Thought of getting insurance a few years ago then did not, so far saved about 400k. WeLife is tempting as they don't want a medical.
