    She may have attempted to do a runner, but seriously, 12 'fit' cops to arrest 1 woman overstayer ? No wonder there's mass gun murders and mass road deaths - cops in Thailand have priorities completely wrong - less they were all hoping for a payday

    No, only 2 cops were there for the arrest, the other 10 came along after hearing there may be a photo shoot

    Normally you will get this when language is set to English or your web browser is translating Thai to your language if you change language to thai or turn browser translation to off then search will appear

    You are correct!  I had the same trouble today on my PC and sensed it had something to do with language but put off searching at the time.  Ive also seen the language setting messing up with the listings giving a totally different description to the product shown.  

     

    Never seen it on mobile phone however.

  3. That was my experience.  I had an a/c in Bangkok but moved to Isaan.  Earlier this year my card expired and I was told I would have to return to Bangkok for a new card.  As that was not possible I decided to close the a/c and open one in my home province.  One problem here is that you must have a long stay visa but bank staff cant read visa stamps so a letter is required from your friendly bloodsucking Imm Office for the tidy sum of 500 baht....not negotiable, no receipt, brown envelope away from the CCTV.

     

    Now some people on here will say that is not true, that you can get a new card anywhere on the face of this earth.  Be warned!
