  1. i have done it last year from Europe Country ,not by wifi , but by Thai sim using mobile connection in roaming , to my surprise it worked as before months before not using roaming it did not worked ...!! The activating roaming on that Thai sim must bin the trick i guess
  2. now i don't understand KK bank anymore before they reduced my daily transfers to 50 000 bht a day ,my trying to higher it at no result ...., then they reduced the ATM daily 200 000 withdraw amount to 20 000 bht , asking to make it higher also at no result . Now out of nowhere it could see my daily transfer whiteout notice can be 200 000 baht (?!...) no email no message just checked it random use ! However only with face scan to do.... Maybe they noticed that in October i transferred back the 1 050 000 baht i transferred in to KK BACK to my E.U. account using day by day the 49500 baht up to the total , leaving KK just 28 000 bht on account and so not extending as planning to 1 year ext. , only the NON O E-VISA 02 from home country now for 3 months X2 times a year using up to a yearly max. 6 month's .... Could it be possible the algorithm understood it was shooting his own foot ? as no much money would come to Thailand anymore except those with family's here in Th. as they have not much choice .... Bachelors have a choice
  3. so coin was reported by you to customs
  4. you'r lucky it was only at security and not at customs....
  5. Importing Gold Bullion into Thailand Import License Required: You must obtain an import license issued by the Ministry of Finance (Economic Affairs Division) before bringing gold bullion into Thailand. Controlled Commodity: Gold bullion (bars, nuggets, sheets, etc.) is considered a controlled item. This excludes regular gold jewelry worn on the body. Customs Clearance: You’ll need to declare the gold at customs and provide documentation such as invoices, packing lists, and possibly a bill of lading. This is done via Thailand’s e-Customs system. Taxes and Duties: While there may be no import duties on gold bullion, VAT may apply unless exempted under specific conditions. Important Notes Personal Transport Risks: Carrying gold bullion personally (e.g., in luggage) without proper licensing and declaration can result in confiscation or legal penalties. Jewelry Exception: Personal gold jewelry worn on the body is generally exempt from these regulations, but excessive quantities may still raise flags at customs.
  6. any gold bullion is monetary gold , only jewels not , i know nobody like to hear this , but each at their own risk ....jewel gold is not under monetary gold but bullion small or big is
  7. use the swift option to transfer , not that one you try now , .....but the transfer fee is higher with swift .....Thai bamks are more & more tricky to get money .....Something is behind all this banking changes , i repatriated my 800 K by swift using in last sept. day after day (20 X ).... but it worked by keeping every transactio just under 50 000 K i abandoned the ret, ext as no trust them anymore , something is going to happen here in TH. i fear Now just coming Thailand with NON 0 2 E-visa keeping my 800K on Home country bank 2 times up to only 6 months a year visiting Thailand
  8. Bringing in or out of Thailand monetary Gold needs a import/export liscence ....., OR you could report the Gold and leave it at Suvharnabum Customs airport untill you'r return and take it again when leaving Thailand
  9. i also got that at 24 october this would be the new limitation ....., and today 24 oct. i checked in the app from KK on my card settings .... still the same limit as before 100 000 is still the limit there, however as mentioned before when i came Thailand as soon i noticed the BOT changes and all banks changes i started to reduce my balance at KK from 1100 000 bht to a very minimum of 28000 bht ....,this at the "day by day limit" of 50000 baht , and that worked anyway , they limit ... i reduce balance , simple Good luck BOT ..., you shall need it i think , something elses i s coming i guess forgetting the ret Ext. , now just comming at 2 X (180 days) a year NON O 90 day and keeping that 800 000 on my E.U. bank , E-Visa on 4 working days , no hassle with whatever new rules TH. invent

  11. It seems his opponents fear him still very hard..... as they try so hard to make him run again to Dubai
  12. Feeling very unhappy in present situation is already a mental situation ...,which can give health problems
  13. I am sure he is enjoying all this splendor and attention very much even whiteout crowd cheering
  14. Good to see his Teflon Shower soap & Shampoo is still working perfect .... I feel "naughty sorry" for the " Thaksin hater brigade "now .....as they where so in joy before But be honest a 76 luxury life style guy a sudden behind bars and jail life , not surprising to get health / mental problems ......
  15. My X,xx.. THB transferring to Euroland the Euro costed me 38,00 already this early morning by KK
  16. So i should be dead already 4 years .....and nobody told me anything
  17. if it is possible to put Bank app(s) on more than 1 phone , (?) as in my country , we could keep a spare smartphone , but i think not possible with Thai bank apps
  18. I love the Catch-22 banking. 1) Must use facial recognition to make transfers. 2) Farangs can't use facial recognition. Just answering this Catch-22 post as not naming any bank in special . But do not get nervous ,as the face scan is for transactions over 50 K ...which anyway can not be done because the limitation , i keep them just under 50K so no need to do a face scan
  19. Kasikorn has it already from as July i did it at KK , so do others ....the catch -22 is ending Even at AIS i did face scan for my mobile number , wich i have 17 years already , did it on myais. online from home also
  20. So number 2 to go to early retirement plan for their employees after Kasikorn ..... Sign on the wall in Banking land ...
  21. That is how i feel it in my "back bone "...., but let it you not scare , each at their own , but 95% of my KK shall be drained day by day completed almost now ( yes you can Int. transfer daily 50K i can testify that it works ...), the limit revision you are hoping on was already standard type rejected when asked , BUT they did not rejected in June 28000 euro Transferring IN to Thailand ..... and then also i was 65+ ....(77 ) Lesson learned ....found my way already as mentioned Good luck to you sir .... Limiting MY money handling ...., no B.O.T can not happen
  22. Sorry , that must be the reason then , as when i took my new passport at my BKK embassy they had a Thai desk person who spoke English . So i thought Embassy handled that and would take care for their U.K. citizens passport's 😇
