She's just a nut case. I've had BCBS for more than 30 years and they have always been fair (with me), IMHO.

I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about when you say older buildings. I have a friend who lives in a so called "older building" and it tends to be a galvanized pipe nightmare. If not the pipes in his room, it would be the pipes in an adjoining room affecting him. Drainpipes linked in such a way that if causes overflows when there is a blockage that's outside of his room. Electrical grounding? Good luck with that. Thats not to say that "New buildings" are not without problems. You just need to know what to look for and ask the right questions when buying/renting whether it's old or new.

A French friend, living in Thailand received one.

Why use the Canadian Post? Surely Canada has other mail delivery services such as FedEx.

It doesn't /shouldn't affect me now but these politicians seem to change/reinterpret the rules like they are changing their underwear (especially when they smell free money). Exempt today but tomorrow, who knows?

I'll wait to be notified or alerted when I renew my visa 4 years from now.

I'll wait until the law is published in the Royal Thai Gazette. If it isn't in the gazette, it's just a rumor. It could take years if it even happens at all.

BINGO! My sentiments exactly.

I think it would be great for the Northeast to leave the Union but only if they took the West Coast, Colorado and New York with them or would that be a deal breaker? It's only a matter of time before these folks with the mind virus called woke realize that nobody cares what they think. The only thing the woke have left now the hatred that is consuming them.

She probably had to have someone (who speaks sensible English) write the statement. Nobody understands her word salad English.

Seek medical assistance. You've lost your sense of smell.

I also received the letter about a month ago. I think it may be for the older customers (American). I opened my account in 2006 and none of these for forms were used. I simply needed passport and hotel address. A friend (American) opened a Kasikorn Account in September of 2023 and had to fill out these forms. Some other banks also require the forms as I had a personal experience with Krungsri Bank about 2018 when trying to open an account. I also received a letter asking for compliance by a date that was 2 months prior to receiving the forms which made me think WTF so I binned the whole mess.

I've been using a Kasikorn " VISA" card for a few years now. No problems

I've read so many articles about the dangerous roads in Thailand and that they need to do this and that. Nothing ever happens. I quit reading these articles about roads. It was like that before I got here and will like that long after I'm gone.......sadly!

Did I miss something? Last I heard this Expat tax thing was just a proposal that many people think will never happen.
