Nothing happened. They did not pass the interest rate hikes (on certain products) onto the depositor.

He has a mane.

Don't know what you pay but surely it does not cost 12000 baht to travel to do a visa extension at immig?

Yes a milestone achievement is more that doubling the number of IRS agents. Soon everyone due a refund and with non standard employment income will have to undergo an audit.

Just did my marriage extension on Monday. In at 10h00 out at 10h30. Cant think why some think it takes ages to do this. Think people do their extensions personally and its not because they are Cheap Charlies but more that they are self sufficient

Nonsense.

Yes, like most of the depositor's in Thailand do not have 1 million baht in the bank. Others with funds over 1 million baht must manage their risk and work to spread it around. Government also do not want money sitting in savings accounts but would rather see the money spent or invested in funds or the stock market. Evaluation of Financial Institutions’ Strengths Depositors are able to check the stability of financial institutions from their credit ratings, provided by well-known financial organizations. Financial institutions’ gross revenues and assets are publicly available on websites – for example, websites of any financial institutions, the Bank of Thailand (BOT), Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), etc. Other important parameters that should be taken into consideration are satisfaction in providing services, liabilities and Rate of Return (ROR). Managing Risks Depositors can distribute their deposits among different banks, which is one of the methods in which they can manage risk under the Deposit Protection Institution. However, if depositors are confident in the stability and health of their financial institutions and are satisfied with the level of service they receive, then they do not need to make such distributions.

Sorry, missed your link to the article. It probably mostly is piracy if they do not have the explicit consent of MS to resell MS license keys.

you have not provided any evidence pertaining to your statement "Banks are like insurance companies they want your money but will do nothing for you in return." That is quite a general and misleading statement.

Bank insurance up to 1 million baht is guaranteed by govt. It is not at all related to covid insurance or insurance institutions or investments.

Foreign card is the card associated with the account/bank in your home country where you usually do your banking to receive and withdraw money. If you need to receive cash then you can get someone to transfer to you by MoneyGram or Western Union, they can send to you the password and transaction record and you can pick up at an affiliated branch wherever you are.

Humans are despicable, continually preying on other species.

Take good care of all my financial information and am extremely cautious, so will never have any problem.

Do you have evidence of that?

Why not use your foreign card and then when you get to Thailand 1st thing to do. go into a branch and open an account. Only takes about 1 hr to do. Then transfer money to yourself.

duh, that is against govt backed protection scheme in the event a financial institution fails.

You can contact your personal insurance company and make a claim.

Why not follow the rules. If SCB are asking for one then why not provide it, could alternatively get one from the embassy. Would that mean if you were able to open an account without a residency certificate then the account and its savings up to 1 million baht might not be protected under govt protection scheme as it could be considered an account held by a non resident?

How much do govts pay an abundance of police officers the worldover to sit around doing mostly nothing.

That is a pretty misogynistic view of women. Nothing to say about many of the lecherous men who seem to have a preconceived ideas of what all women are.

That is not very nice wishing that on people whom you do not know.

The government controls all and everything. Nobody and nothing is free.
