  1. I'm going to book a flight with my debit card from Kasikorn. There's no name on the card but I have used it online. In fact last week I used it to pay for a year of advert free youtube as the ads were annoying me. When I look in the Kasikorn app on my phone I see that the debit card is listed with my full name along with the number, expiry date and security code. Also - I would like to use this card while I'm down in Cambodia but have no trust that it will actually work - I don't believe anything the drones in the bank say. They told me before it would work about 10 years ago and it didn't.
  2. I don't believe that for one minute, they will do the same as a lot of us. It's trivially easy to lose that residency status due to the 180 day rule whether Thai or not. May 5 is just day 126 of 2024, day 180 is on June 28 this year.
  3. Plenty of water in the sea, but they don't want to pay for the desalination do they?
  4. Would be nice to have that clarified even once when this kind of thing happens but so far it's never happened.
  5. I've been saying this for years. They hate us, only now are we seeing highly publicised evidence of this, it was more subtle before.
  6. No - you won't ever hear any more on this. How or why was he arrested? He was attempting to leave the country - normally a fine is payable and you're on your way. Not a Phuket though - things seem to work differently there. Is there a reward for finding a foreigner on overstay?
  7. They always are when these murky arrests happen at the airport.
  8. I'm not there yet but going pretty soon! Want to leave some room for a couple of trips back later this year with room to stay under the 180 days
  9. Whilst you're a shining beacon of virtue and an example to us all 🙄 Actually taking the time to write a complaint about others comlpaining, that's quite the achievement there!
  10. I watched his earlier videos, he's on a tourist visa or exemption (exemption I think) - been here a couple of months. He's going to be denied an extension of stay and given 7 days to get out. When he next applies for a visa on his next trip to Vietnam it will be mysteriously denied - then we will hear all the real stories.
  11. I never let those whom I hate know it, I respect nothing that goes on this this country and I find a lot of it very distasteful. But I'm allright Jack so fack them all.
  12. Here's his channel - I have no doubt he will say something dumb later today : https://www.youtube.com/@tom_greatorex There's only 3 videos in his main videos link but several more in the 'live' section.....including one saying a major tv station did a highly edited hit piece on him comprised of little snippets designed to get him booted out of the country. He has notably launched a new business in this Pai area and there's some people who don't like him but I have a feeling they might like get their hands on his business. Now that sounds like Thailand to me
  13. I just told you the channel name - scroll up a little, he's deleted most of his videos.
  14. Did you just damage the nation there? Careful as you go there...... Having said that, I know this youtube channel - it's named 'Esoteric Entrepreneur' and the guy is a bit of a nut 🤣 He's started posting videos again, if they boot out this idiot then we had better all get ready to lick boots for the rest of our lives or risk his inevitable fate - I reckon he will almost certainly get kicked out.
  15. The main reason I decided not to return to Phuket many years ago, maybe 14 or 15 years back was the scamming lazy tuk tuk drivers. I see things are still the same. One of these robbing cants got a slap for his thievery, so what?
  16. They will probably sue him for defamation.
  17. Of course, but it's not quite the tragedy it first appears when reading about it.
  18. When sending a wire I need to select a 'reason' for the wire transfer every time, have done for many years now. I always just select 'Personal Transfer' and manually type in a reference of 'Personal' i generally send wires for less amounts than this but sometimes send more than 1 of them, like I will wait for the first one to arrive before sendin the second one a week later or something like that. When initiating the transfer which I'm going to assume went through the SWIFT system was the OP given the choice of selecting the mandatory and required 'reason' field?
  19. He didn't run anyone over so there's no need to make up nonsense scenarios that didn't happen here.
  20. Minor incidend, scratched car, bike parked too close together so they all fall over at the same time. Irrelevant, but he's a foreigner so lets hang 'im 😁
  21. I will purchase a new car one day and there's a good chance it won't be a Mercedes due to the irrational amount of attention they get from the local morons. There's nothing special about a Mercedes at all, they're a very ordinary car - but not here, if I were ever to crash into someone I wouldn't want pictures of myself plastered all over the media just because I happened to be driving a Mercedes instead of say a Toyota camry.
  22. Labour government in charge then, Tony Blair and his mob.
  23. It should be shut down for a year, that would make them learn.
  24. Aren't these thing like rats which attack and tear your place apart if you so much as accidentally leave a window open? Or are these particular 'monkeys' well behaved? From what I've heard this is the kind of animal that gets chased away with a broom when it comes. Then it steals the broom and tries to eat it while one of the accomplices is raiding your fridge and food cupboards.
