Thanks guys. my middle name is missing when i look at my account at CIBC and compare it to my account name at SCB. CIBC says its there, in their records. I bet this is their fault. I am going to change my receiving bank of record, at Services Canada, from CIBC to my Wise account, collect 3 receipts there, before transferring to SCB. (SCB charges 500 baht per transaction)

SCB says use SICOTHBK. ( I phoned SCB to confirm this). CIBC offers 2 options: SICOTHBKXXX and SICOTHBKTSD. I have never had a problem for the past 15 years. Now, neither works, for the past 5 months. Any advice? CIBC used to offer a transfer option to WISE Canada. But not any more.

are you barking mad, or just a silly boy. ? you just posted your opinion, which is a plagarization of what COMEY wrote ...about TRUMP 555. Go read the op-ed article Comey wrote for the New York Times, (published on April 15, 2020). Here is the exact quote from the article: "Accumulating a lifetime of skeletons in a giant, walk-in closet" The context was Comey arguing that President Trump was unfit for office and that his leadership posed a danger to the country. The "skeletons in the closet" metaphor was used to describe what Comey saw as Trump's vulnerability to manipulation and compromise due to his past personal and financial conduct.

Hi, I'm Seth Rogen. When, oh when, will Americans learn to appreciate Canadian humor.? I bet many of you had trouble following the plot line in Schitts Creek.

yes, i have a stutter. 🙂 correction - i handed 10k cash to the clerk. the answer is on another thread. I am over 70. wtf, right?

LOOOK Looks like one too. certainly a predator of the gullible English

i was shopping, in person, at Central Mall Surat, for an item costing 59,000 baht. I had 20k in cash so felt safe, using my debit card, which had a 50k daily limit. I put down 20k cash with the merchand and asked the senior staff/mgr to debit my account for 49k. Low and behold, it got rejected . 3 attempts and eventually, they were able to get a 20k debit accepted. after that, the error message was ''declined''. i had to spend over an hour at the branch,, at which point i got told ''it is bank policy''. after kicking up a fuss ( I hate doing that in public), i got transferred to HO in Bangkok. eventually, they reentered all of my limits, with the max amounts allowed and said 'ok off you go'. what the heck is going on?

very curious to know, do you qualify for your pension because you are a citizen of Norway? I've had years of arguments with the Danish govt. their argument is that there is no tax treaty with Thailand (which is untrue). But Pensions Denmark is insulated (also I'd describe it as ''isolated, imo'' ) from any decent level of communication.

Let me guess...you are posting that from a GOP state and are about to see health insurance premiums for you and your loved ones increase 200-300% on Nov 1, thanks to the Herr Commandant & his Project 25 sidekick ?

i got great service by phoning the international dept in Bangkok. the BIC they gave me was BICOTHBK. I will update, after trying this code.

Hi, I am having problems with making international transfers TO my SCB account. what is the correct BIC code to use for SCB ? Search engines (Chat/Google) say ''use SICOTHBKXXX or SICOTHBKTSD'' neither work. should i be adding my branch code - despite the fact that the search results say you do not need to do that, because some branches do not have codes. My branch savings account does show a 4 digit code.

title says it all. i picked up a house in a distressed sale, to generate investment income. The Chanoet title is registered in my girlfriend's name. I part financed it. Can i register my loan on the title deeds (which currently show there are no charges registered) ?

interesting comment. i wonder if the elephant sanctuary guy in Phuket owned the property. His hissy wife claimed that she had some hi-so connections. since it was beach front, you can bet dollars to doughnuts that if it was owned by a nominee company - it's gone.

I see nobody is mentioning the elephant in the room. In 9 out of 10 of these legal 'constructs' , the expat who is residing in the house is is living there rent free. the first piece of chit to hit the fan is when DBD starts looking at all of these expat (minority owned) companies and discovers that it owns property,, but there is no rental income.

To all. I will check with my buddy when he gets back this month. what i quoted was hearsay.

I just got an update on that. a friend visiting the UK (well, England to be specific, and it's out in the countryside,) at the moment. Was advised that they do not recognize an IDP. so he is 84 years old and is forced to get around by train, bus/taxi and walking. Nice people, pity about the country.

No medical certificate required? i just renewed my Thai drivers license, here in NST. officer was very helpful. they had their own list of docs required. one unfortunate aspect is, I had to got to IO, way south of where i live, to get a residency cert. which required 1-2 passport type photos.ok that is normal procedure, now that i am applying for a IDP, i will need to repeat the exercise, go get a 2nd Residency Cert. then go back to the Licensing office with the docs you listed. one unknown there are 2 different websites i researched. one said you need a Residency Cert. the other website said you did not need one. makes a huge difference for me at from home to IO is 170 km .

'The Order' an excellent movie just out. Jude Law stars and co produced. based on a true story - about who wants to control the US

there goes the dollar, the stock markets (including Thailand's which has the worst performance in 2024 . down down down.

unfortunately the law here provides for nothing more than a slap on the wrist - and then you're back out on the street destroying peoples lives. i know a Thai single mother who had 'pay day' loans. the worse part was you could not re pay the loan principal, installments. so you were locked up in loan jail, so to speak. when we head that they started repossessing her house hold contents, we we refinanced her out, with a no-interest loan and a low repayment affordable schedule. these are the issues the incompetent government should address.

been there, done that. got banned for a bit. no problem . I learned how it can ruin your day when you post comments like these. it has to be stopped. I noticed on the news today elsewhere, that the UK wants to introduce a law to make it illegal to ''plan'' to protest. count your blessings, that you are living in a country that has not reached that level of paranoia - yet

It's not just her. It is the ''Toxin era'' a long series of mistakes and corruption. all to the detriment of Thailand #1 the Alpine & other land scandals. #2 the corrupt sale of the nation's satellite orbit rights to Singapore, via AIS. #3 putting his economically (both micro and macro) incompetent sister in power, at a cost of hundreds of billions of baht. #4 as you describe her, he never should have let his cookery class graduate daughter running the show. what comes to mind is (can't remember Shakespeare's lines - ''will nobody rid me of this menace'' because Thailand is now a ship without a rudder, nor a competent captain. the bright side - at least we don't live in Gaza

Toxin is losing his grip on reality. Desert sand or just the smell of money has corrupted his brain.he was a brilliant first- time PM. then his son got hooked on ''you-know-what''; so he turned to the dark side, with the war on drugs and maybe 1000-2000 dead innocents. since then, it has been a series of mistakes & corruption

buy low sell high. wait for the price to go up.
