This happens millions of time a week around the world. The police aren't going to chase $400 for you. Don't be surprised if the bank denies your claim. You need to report these transactions promptly. You failed to show 'duty of care'.

Actually it is your fault. You need to keep a check on payments. Very easy to do. You can also block and unblock cards in a matter of seconds. You took 7 weeks to report the transactions. That is your fault.

This is fairly common. You should check your banking website every week if not everyday. Only takes 30 seconds to check recent payments. You can also set up an sms message to authorise online transactions.

I don't care about the private lives of others. You made claims that you can't back up with evidence.

I'm talking about hotels not immigration. Immigration is actually quicker for tourists now. No card to fill in. 30 days is moving to 60 days. Your comments only apply to long term stays but Thailand has introduced a new 5 year visa. I read the cost was 10,000 baht.

Phuket is full of Russians and sex tourists. Probably get far more dodgy characters. More likely to get room damage and noise complaints.

Post the evidence you say you read.

Please tell. How does it work?

That is 3rd party gossip on social media. Would not qualify as reliable info by anyone. Have you spoken to ladyboys or their clients directly? Yes or no?

Do you speak to these ladyboys or clients and ask them questions? You claim the clients say they are straight. How would you know this without talking to them? Hua Hin has no ladyboys on the beaches. Didn't see many ladyboys anywhere in Hua Hin. The city seems mostly "straight".

Chiang Mai hotels are guest friendly as far as I know. I don't think many hotels have policies against a second person. Normally they just want ID from all people staying but I would say half don't ask. They only want ID from the one paying. I have checked in some hotels without any ID as it was paid online. One condo they had no front office staff at night and key was left in secret spot. I think most of your ideas are based on pre 2010. Thailand has changed a lot. Most people book and pay online now. Check in fast and most hotels don't ask questions.

Know a lot more than you. Also know the Thai beaches better than you. Done the beaches with a partner a lot recently. You are sitting in NZ telling people about Thailand from 2010.

How do you know all this? You seem to know a lot.

Food is cheap. Find a part time worker.

Have you asked many of them? I have never spoken to them. The younger ones look straight, the older ones look gay. Never spoken to any of them.

DeNiro can say what he wants. So can others who think he is embarrassing himself which he is. Half the country now hate him and he has to employ more body guards. He will now be hated by half the country forever. Not very smart behaviour. Their is no upside to his rants, only downside. No swinging voter listens to angry rants.

You wouldn't know what they think of it. I have seen guys with ladyboys and they seem comfortable with it.

Old liberals turn to movie stars for guidance and adopt the when in Rome attitude when it suits them. Protesting at home, no protesting abroad, just rants. They are all the same. The old tattoos they got when younger do look bad now they are 65yo.

So will you dump yours when you turn 60yo?

So you date older women do you? That's good to hear.

Do you see guys over 60yo dating women over 60yo often? Probably not.

Is she over 60yo?

You can normally fix yourself with heat and stretching once you know some moves. They are all on youtube now. Have not been to Chiro in 40 years or Physio in 10. Just a waste of money for them to do very little. I fixed my shoulder tightness last month myself with my own idea on body movements.
