  1. When the rules were changed to 2 months money in the bank from 3 I thought no way I am trusting them on that. There was a report on here from a poster who said he went to do his extension after being here years and had the money in for the changed 2 month period. They would not have it and insisted it was still 3, no extension and he had to leave the country. I have no problem following the rules, but I expect them to do the same!
  2. True and I printed out the changes, kindly supplied via here and showed it in Thai to officers at Samut Prakan immigration who said 'that does not count still need TM30' At least did not get fined, but they will not process an extension or even a 90 day report without seeing your last TM30. Where it is years old of course they will have had many bits of paper since with the same address on. Strange. I was there two weeks ago to do an extension, luckily did have an old TM30 print out with me. Showed them the app with my address on it- no good have to see paper!
  3. But what they sell is mostly rubbish booze for the locals
  4. Why not use tasers? Sometimes it's difficult to tell reality from a joke in this country ????
  5. what about strays with no owners attacking people? any stray should be put down attacking or not
  6. Had one for 3 years but the battery only ever lasted about 4 minutes
  7. Only place I was mugged, 9.30 on a Sunday morning!
  8. Where else do they charge a few years wages to 'pass' the entrance exam. That's what happened when my sister in law applied a few years ago. They were told the pass mark was 400k, in Bkk.
  9. Buddhism is often blamed, but it's more the result of the book! Thais have no problem with cock fighting, butchering livestock and smashing fish to death. Dogs are untouchable for another reason.
  10. Dog will not even be put down, any dog attacking anyone should be immediately sent on it's way to the kennel in the sky.
  11. If NOT lazy they can rake it in, 20 years ago a GF was earning 80k a month at Baccara on Soi Cowboy and the Eden girls were making 100k a month minimum. The amounts they charge these days should easily be as much.
  12. Phrapradaeng, is south west not south east. Samut Prakan is both sides of the river
  13. No I am not into ponzi schemes
  14. Double Dutch mate, no idea what any of this is ????
  15. Dogs again, even if neutered by the do gooder foundation they are still pests, as this demonstrates.
  16. I did it after reading about it on here, she can put money in and take it out but not a joint account and immigration do not know as the book remains the same. Not sure if other banks do it, quite easy, for once.
  17. Burkinis might be acceptable if topless women were allowed in muslim countries
  18. Some Banks let wife on the account as co signee, she can take money out on her own. Not a joint account. I did this at Krungsri
  19. I'd rather buy a bottle of 8 year old blended single malt 100 pipers for under 700 baht. Competition will bring the prices down.
  20. Not sure, over 100k at least Thais tend to be a bit secretive about the details, just boast about the total cost, 240k in this case
