  1. All I know is that I received a letter from Barclay's stating that I must close my account as I do not reside in the UK. If I don't close it they will do so on 31st August 2023. So, the requirement is that I reside in the UK, which I don't and will not in the forseeable future. I don't know whether this is a legal requirement, or just Barclay's deciding that it's better for their business.
  2. Maybe Much Ado About Nothing. Edit: Just to say, joking aside, that these big Pattaya events are usually pretty good.
  3. That sucks! My pension provider accepted the authenticated "proof of account details" provided by Wise.
  4. I never had any issues with Barclay's in the 18 years I've lived in Thailand without a UK address - until now.
  5. I would support efforts to reduce my need to travel far from home (for example, not having to go to Bangkok twice to renew my passport), but laws and regulations to restrict my movements - never.
  6. @paddypower Can she have the income paid directly to her Thai bank account? If not, she could set up a Wise multi currency account which gives a UK sort cde and account number and can be used to receive her UK income. Then she can use the Wise app to transfer her money to Thailand. There are probably other financial services companies like Wise, but I don't have any info about them.
  7. Also age discrimination. 5-year olds pay ฿150 but 61-year olds pay just ฿80 for 1.5 hours.
  8. Q. What do you call a fish with no eyes? A. Fsh. Q. What part of a fish weighs the most? A. The scales.
  9. Two priests decided to open a fish & chip shop. One was a fish friar and the other was a chip monk.
  10. I quit my job as a postman when they gave me my first letter to deliver. It wasn't for me.
  11. I had no idea there was a whistling version of the song. Apparently, it's used to train cockatiels.
