  1. No, as I said above, I have a Wise account in Australia using a Thai address, which acts like a regular bank account (except for the debit / ATM card), with an account number, BSB etc. I keep a small AUD balance in there all the time. I also have investments in Singapore and contacted Wise once about opening an account there, again using my Thai address. I was told no problem, but I'd have to close my Australian one first. You can only have one account.
  2. Do you have a Wise debit card? I have a Wise account in Australia, despite not being Australian, nor having an address there, I use my Thai address. The only "issue" is that Thailand isn't on their debit card issuing list, which to me isn't a problem, but if you did have a debit card and they found you weren't residing in a country that's on their list then I could see them wanting further proof. Looks like you can't get a multi currency card if you live in the US right now too, for some reason, but you can get a USD one. "The Wise card is currently available for personal customers that live in these countries and regions: Australia Brazil Canada EEA + Switzerland* Japan Malaysia New Zealand Philippines Singapore UK + European microstates and overseas territories* USA except for residents of Nevada (US Wise Multi-Currency Cards temporarily unavailable) The Wise Multi-Currency Card isn't available for business customers in Malaysia, the Philippines, and temporarily in the US". Can I get the Wise card in my country? | Wise Help Centre Resolut has similar card restrictions, but Thailand isn't on their list either, so you'd still need to provide an address in one of the following countries: "Supported countries where I can sign up for Revolut You can open a Revolut account if you live in a country or overseas territory listed below.

  3. Russia attacking its own infrastructure again as dashcam footage shows either an X-22 or X-23 missile crashing on the outskirts of a village, cutting off its electricity supply. This was 300km from Ukraine, so hardly a near miss. The official Russian line is that it was a discarded booster rocket - which would in itself be a cause of concern for people under flight paths of future missile flights, but the footage clearly shows it's a complete missile. Maybe it was one with a washing machine chip in it and it just went into the spin cycle?
  4. Got a part time job at the local ice cream parlour in town. Then I lost it as I can't work sundae's
  5. I just gave the wife a handmade bra that I got from a craft fair, and told her it was made from sheepdog fur. Aww, how sweet She giggled. Is that to keep my boobies nice and warm? I said, No, but it'll round them up and point them in the right direction.
  6. Paddy goes into work one Monday and says to his workmates, "My brother dropped dead on Saturday, He was only 37, in perfect health, never smoked or drank, worked out everyday, he just dropped dead." His workmates said, "kinell, Paddy, what happened?" Paddy said, "His parachute didn't open!"
  7. Walking through the cemetery yesterday afternoon, saw a chap shovelling soil into a hole. Are you the regular gravedigger ? I asked No, he replied, I'm just filling in.
  8. I just bought a non return valve at Home Pro, but it doesn't fit. Do you think I can take it back?
  9. I said to the Doctor, "I'm worried as whenever I go to visit my mother she gets my name wrong." He asked, "Is it Alzheimer's?" I said "No, It's Brian"
  10. I was talking to a navy seal in Pattaya once. To be honest, I've no idea why it was that colour.
  11. A friend of mine just bought an AM radio. Now he says he wants a PM one to listen to in the afternoon.
  12. I’m usually not one for buying into conspiracy theories, all this noise about bird flu, swine flu, Asian flu you see online just passes me by. But, I saw a house the other day, and the agent said it had a chimney flu. I’m not buying it.
