If once account could be frozen just because someone reports a scam, everyone's accounts would be frozen.

 

Something would likely have to be proven....

And needs to hire a lawyer to have his account frozen? A police report is not enough?

No, before

I am sorry, but not understand what you mean here with " No, before".

Thank you

When an account is frozen? Just when big amounts of money are involved?

 However, we know almost nothing about the incident you are referring to.

As far as I know, some people living near the couple (foreigner man/Thai woman) called authorities for the noise that they listen every day from them: loud music I think.

IO and police shows up and he paid the 90000 and still there.

But it's just a story they told me, so don't know if is real or not.

Ordered five shirts, same size L: delivered as follow 

Size: S, M, M, S, XL. 

Still wait the right size or the money.

There is nothing in the pink ID card number to identify the card holders nationality.

 

I am a Swiss national and the sequence 1189 is not in the ID number of my card.

1) I know 

2) I suppose is different for everyone, even if from the same country.

The only time that I have had a passport control / check was in a night bus.

 

This was on the Route Pattaya -  Korat (which also doesn't pass near any border)

 

Day time never, but never say never ????

Same experience. Done that route few times on daytime, no problem. The only time I have done that by night was during Songkran. My bad I did not book the ticket, so they put me on the 00.30 bus. At the only checkpoint, police check every people on the bus. They even didn't ask for the passport but as I saw all Thais hands out their ID, I do the same with my passport. The officer even did not take a look at it.

Switzerland, 1189

it isn't going to kill you as a one off, but will certainly have effects in the long term if it becomes a regular occurrence.

Just once.

I can remember exactly one occasion on which someone avoided the automatic blacklisting for an overstay of more than 90 days. This was leaving from U-Tapao with an extremely good sob story. If leaving from Suvarnabhumi or Don Muang, your chance would be exactly zero.

I remember one guy in Suvarnabhumi that tell the story about a sick daughter and avoided the blacklist. At that time I overstayed for 2 days and we were togheter at the immigration counter waiting to pay the fine.

However, you need to be able to pay the resulting high fees.

I remember around 40000 THB at Malaysian border.

So: the envelope with the money reached the destination on February 2nd. The local post office kept it until yesterday and now is in the process to travel back the the post office where I sent it, cause he doesn't go pick up it. As well, during this time, never answered my messages or answer my phone. Now when the envelope with the 1500 will reach back here, ready for the chapter two of this story.

It can be either criminal or administrative. If you just leave (paying the fine) after a short overstay, that is not criminal. However, if arrested (even for other offences) the overstay can, and usually will, also be prosecuted as a criminal offence, for which you can be incarcerated, deported and blacklisted from re-entering Thailand.

That's the answer I was looking for: I asked it to just to compare with other countries. For example, if I am not wrong, in most of the European countries is not a criminal offence, but just administrative.

Overstaying in Thailand is considered a criminal or administrative offence?

I don't see the quote option so I reply normally. Use the branch at The Mall, entrance at ground level, in front of KFC.

If someone is overstayed and the passport is about to expire, does the Embassy still renew the passport and can the renewal be precluded given the overstay? Thank you

The EMS guy went to his apartment twice, nobody there. I gave him the envelope tracking number and told him to go and pick up it with his passport at local post office. Called and messaged him from yesterday, no reply.

How long the envelope will be at the local post office? 

It's almost three hours I cannot send money through my Government savings bank application and this error pop up:

E:PPESB:0004

Anyone use the same bank and have the same issue? Thank you.

 Strange he couldn’t have just reminded you during those ten days  instead of reacting the way he did.  
Glad you found a solution.  But to be honest.  Some of the facts sound a little odd.  Especially with a friend threatening to go to the police over a small loan.  Not even 10 days or less old. 

We kept in touch during these 10 days: from he side he never spoked about the money and from my side as well as we plan to meet again around mid of February.

And the day i opened the post I read his message about repay him or go to report me.
