Do you not see Thais wearing shirts that have vulgarity written on them? I do. I see older women wearing t-shirts with words only a nasty sailor would use. You ever stop to think that someone might have given him the shirt as a gift? Or maybe it was second-hand and that's all the parents could afford? -

My Thai step-son wears a Chelsea shirt a lot as it's his favorite team..... Do note, he's not British. -
Looks like a typical Thai install. I just love it when they put the toilet so close to a wall that my leg won't fit or else it is being smashed between the toilet and the wall. As far a leak, I find it is usually a toilet or one of those cheap faucets used outside around the house for the garden hoses. My background is electrical engineering and many say that relates to plumbing as well. There's 3 things I really hate to do but have been successful when needed to: - Fixing plumbing problems - Working on vehicles - Painting

Sounds like you need to go somewhere else to stay or are you being forced to stay there? -

Mobile phone inventor made first call 50 years ago

It was a very popular model. Back in the day Nokia was 'THE' phone manufacturer of the world. Matter of fact a colleague of mine used to work for Nokia in North Carolina. He was a Process Engineer. He told me that they had setup a Continuous Flow Manufacturing production line and in so many seconds a finished phone would roll off the line. He further stated that when the production line came to a halt for any reason and production stopped the Factory Manager of that facility would get an alert and he would then go to the production line barking out orders until production started again. -

I just tossed mine last week....... I replaced it with a Sony Ericson (tossed last week as well) which I thought was cool as it has an MP3 player built in. Then I had to give that up because it was 2G. -

The first time I used a mobile phone was in the 1980s. My brother was a Field Engineer and his company took back their pager and provided him with a mobile. And honestly it was not that big and bulky. -

When I think of voicemail I think of phonemail which reminds me of ROLM.... The greatest company to work for! -

Excellent! ...and congrats I am not quite understanding, did she get approval, or just scheduled for a phone call? I have my call 1 week from today. Looking forward to getting this all done. I agree, terrible service. -
Pointless....pffft..... I could care less if they send you off for a statement. (This is the Internet, how is one to know you would be truthful?) I would like to ask though out of curiosity, what IO have you been using for the past 17 years?

UNCLE!!!! (Good Luck!)

Updating your bank book showing the current balance for THAT day does not show them that your account never dropped below 400k throughout the year, does it?
-
What happens if one doesn't routinely update their bank book? Thus the 12 month statement requirement!
-
That's why they require a 12 month statement. It's been posted before, two items are needed: - 12 month statement (which takes BKB days to provide) - Letter stating you have an account with them (which they can provide in a matter of minutes, depending on the queue that day you make the request)

Please re-read my original post (slowly) as well as the one you replied to. Here, I'll quote it again for you, "..........unless some IOs are different than others" I included that statement because it amazes me how some allows Immigration to walk all over them. Like I said, if an IO states something different then show them facts (the laws and rules). 13 years 3 different IO and never anything different than what the rules state. I guess I am lucky!

Pretty much what I said, wasn't it? (..........unless some IOs are different than others) I've been doing the Retirement extension for 13 years now and have done so at 3 different IOs, having various officers and every time it's been the same. If any officer gives me a problem or states something different I would just show them multiple places where it's stated:
