I think there is an error in the order you listed the countries in your post

Remove them from the planet, and plant trees in the newly created open space

Nobody forced me, I voted with my feet because they went hostile. In Bangkok bank I opened a 4 month term deposit, paying 2% annually. With the other 50% I withdrew in the other branch, where I closed my account, I will tomorrow open a 7 month term deposit with CIMB, paying 1.9% annually.

Did you even bother to read the OP? I am an account holder with this bank for almost 20 years, with different accounts opened in different branches over the years, and opened my most recent account 7 months ago, with my retirement extension and yellow book in the same branch

My immigration accepts term deposits, but I have accounts in 6 banks, and use another bank for immigration

Isn't it BOT that set the rules for who can open an account? And why they strengthened the rules after all those years. I know branch managers tend to make up their own rules, simply because they are too dumb to know their job, but this is clearly a bank policy now. So who says this are not new BOT rules, and other banks haven't followed up yet? I also don't know how recent these new rules are, and only went to Bangkok bank, so other banks may have followed already. Did you open any bank accounts in the last few weeks?

I'm an account holder with Tannachart bank (now called TTB) for the best part of the last 20 years. I opened my last account (no-fixed) earlier this year. Furthermore, I'm on an extension based on retirement and have a yellow book and pink ID card. Since the no fixed account pays a meager 1.1% in interest, I went today to the same branch where it was opened (central festival) to see which better option they had. They offered a 12-month term deposit at 1.85%, but then it started. To open a new account, a work permit is now needed. 1 year retirement and yellow book don't suffice anymore. When I showed them my no fixed account book, they said, new rules. I asked them to call head office for me, which they did, and which confirmed that now a work permit is needed to open an account. So I withdraw half the balance in the account, and went to the Bangkok bank branch opposite the TTB bank, where I opened a new term deposit without issues. I then went to the branch in Big C South Pattaya, and asked there to open a term deposit, only to get the answer that I needed a work permit. Again I showed them the no fixed account, and asked how I could have opened that one, since I never have had a work permit. The branch manager then called the head office herself, and again was told only with work permit. It was a different person answering the phone, by the way. So that is when he withdrew the remaining 50% of the balance, and closed the account. Does anyone else sees the writings on the wall, if all banks in the future will start requesting a work permit to open an account?

Of course he was unprepared. He didn't get the questions AND answers upfront, like Miss word salad get from her interviewers.

These 99 year leases apply only to government owned land. For private land owners it is still only 30 years maximum

So you left?

I only have to look at the car parking at big c extra to know which part of the month we are

Are Europeans an ethnic minority group?

When you gonna take your next retreat from the forum old man? It's way overdue if you can't express yourself without abusing the emoji option

Do you have issues with anyone who doesn't share your opinions? 😀😗😙😜😚🤨😧😢

Very weak argument old man. What is racist about my comment? There are Indians who are native to America, and Indians living in India. Which one you think applies to Kamala?

Of course she is Indian...only the wrong kind

You still not succeed after 17 years

Have you considered entering "accountant Pattaya" in Google or another search engine?

Men with boobs?

And then you need to know that most of them aren't even American

Are you really so illiterate that you don't understand it was you who didn't need to reply?

Who on God's green earth are you to demand that everyone agrees with YOUR opinion. No need to reply, as I know the answer already. You are one of those that the world is sick and tired of, and you have just delivered the evidence as to why
