They haven’t increased their prices for years and upgraded me from 80MB ADSL to 500MB fibre for no cost so I am well pleased with the value for money aspects anyway.

I have Gmail account anyway so it’s not a big deal. True has been very good to me since I started using them in 2007 for internet services so I don’t have any complaints about them so I will just wait and see.

I recently got an email from True stating that my truemail email account will end on 1st December 2024. I actually wondered if it was some kind of scam at first so I made sure that I didn’t click on any links in the email. I just wondered if anyone else had received such an email. I tried to send an email to truecorp but they don’t have customer service by email anymore and it takes too long to get connected to an English speaking agent through the app so I thought I would check and see if anyone else had received such an email.

Note that it said a rip on the photo page. Maybe concern about the photo being tampered with. We don’t know that she wasn’t intending to enter the countries that she was traveling through especially as she had spent time in India before. Much more to this story than meets the eye I think. She would have checked in before clearing immigration surely so the airline would only see her passport again at the gate where they only do a quick check in my experience. Why are they trying to raise £1000 anyway?

For the benefit of others who search this topic in future I am pleased to report that wheelchairs are available at the security checkpoint at Building B. You have to leave ID or driving license as security deposit.

Does anyone know if there is a wheelchair available for use at the Immigration Office at Chaeng Wattana? I am not very good at walking long distances and it would be useful to know that a wheelchair is available for use so my wife can push me around if necessary. TIA

What new rules came in effective June 1st?

Agreed but that was under a military government and they were arrested under laws that are very specific to Thailand ( lese majeste). Protesters who didn’t breach LM laws were left alone because they got around the Covid regulations by traveling in cars with less than 5 passengers.I don’t understand why people are defending a guy who is doing business here on a tourist visa. The OP is actually misleading by suggestion that he might be charged for criticizing the country when his real crimes were related to breach of his visa conditions which he incriminated himself for.

Really? Go to Vietnam and start posting criticism of the government. That’s what no freedom of speech looks like.There is only one thing that you aren’t free to speak about in Thailand and you should know what that is.

Was it honest criticism? Or was he bragging about doing business on a tourist visa, buying property using funds that he scammed from someone in UK, abusing a nurse who was treating him ( who does that recording it then posting it online?) I don’t understand why people are defending him.

I haven’t been to Pai since 1990. Has it changed much? 😄

Yes he reported the truth that he was running a business illegally whilst on a tourist visa and was picked up by the police for it so I guess that they didn’t turn a blind eye to it. All the other stuff like insulting the nurse who was trying to help him was irrelevant but not likely to put the authorities into a tolerant mood towards him. Isn’t there a website called the Darwin Awards for people like him.

Maybe the fact that he was boasting about running a business ( according to the description of his videos posted here) whilst on a tourist visa is what upset the authorities? That’s illegal and grounds for arrest and deportation as far as I know. All the discussion about freedom of speech doesn’t apply if he is boasting about breaking the law.

I wonder if he said something about the family that we don’t talk about? Now that would be silly

Does anyone have any recent experience in obtaining a non O visa in Penang based on marriage? In particular can you confirm that copies of Malaysia entry stamp is required? If so is there anywhere near Consulate where you can get copies done? Any other relevant information that is not stated on the Consulate website?TIA
