and we've just recorded the second month of negative growth so a likely recession is on the way

Blue on blue is a speciality of the US military

I went to a flat earther's meeting once. It was held in a pub called The Globe 🤔

Wise gives you a UK bank account number and sort code so they have a deal with one of the banks or the banking authorities. Nationwide is not a bank but I bet you can get your private pension paid into their account. Wise is headquartered in London and regulated by the FCA. If they go bust they have insurance to cover up to £100k per account holder. UK banks only cover up to £80k

There was a post on here where an Oz guy said he got an IDP with his Thai DL and went on holiday to Australia and hired a car and everybody was happy. So maybe it will work. Lots of ppl let their home country's licence expire

Assuming his liver failure was not genetic the most likely answer is the overuse of prescription medicines, most of which are freely available to buy over the counter or a poor diet causing NAFLD which can often lead to cancer

My wife used to get one when we went to England and can be used in the UK for up to one year

I renewed mine online and didn't even have to provide a new photo as they asked permission to use my passport photo. You can redirect mail for up to 4 years with Royal Mail. You don't need a UK bank as Wise can offer all the same services but best to set Wise up while you still have a UK address. I use my friend's address and he opens the mail for me and takes a photo and I'm reading it in seconds. He rarely has to forward anything.

I remember that post, but when I left last May, I looked for this sign. There is one telling you that you must get a re-entry permit from the immigration desk. It doesn't say don't use the e-gates. When you scan your passport it updates your record and on your return, the IO will scan your passport and up pops your file with the departure date.

This is what happens when you put an accounts manager in charge of the budget. Nearly 3 million people have signed a petition calling for a new general election, citing the Labour Government's failure to deliver on the promises made in the lead-up to the last election. Two-tier Kier's ratings have gone from +11 to minus-38

I can transfer funds for free with my bank First Direct (HSBC) but I still get more baht if I use Wise. You can go to Wise.com and see the figures

I look forward to you supplying the evidence

They have to be in town for when the BF visits so might as well stay in town. As has been said already these girls have several men on the go, sending money, so they don't have to work the bars anymore.

You only have to file a tax return if you have a tax liability in Thailand and have spent more than 180 days here. A tax liability could stem from you bringing untaxed money onshore, earning dividend payments from investments in Thailand, earning money from Thai business ownership etc. If the only funds you bring to Thailand are already taxed in your home country and they have a double taxation agreement then you do not have a tax liability in Thailand.

Paying with Google Wallet/Apple Pay/ Samsung Pay is available more than people think. It is just a RFID payment the same as actually using a card. You can use it anywhere they have a machine for touch card payments (Usually called contactless payment). 711, Big C, Lotus's, Fuel Stations, Starbucks, Tops etc. The only problem is the staff invariably do not know how to do it. So what I do is wave my BB debit card but don't let them take it and as I go to touch the machine with the card I use my phone instead. They often say I haven't paid yet but when they look at the till the transaction has gone through. Transactions over 1500 baht require your PIN. One place did ask me to put my card in before it would let me enter the PIN - I can't remember where now. It didn't matter to me as I had a physical Wise card but that could be awkward with a virtual card. There has been a guy on this forum who claims he got his Wise card sent to his Thai address. It could be something to do with where you declared being tax resident to Wise. My account is based at my UK address and I obtained the card when I was in the UK. It only allows 2 free ATM withdrawals a month so being able to load the card and make payments could become invaluable. I can set up Google Wallet on my Samsung Galaxy Watch, so I will do that next and upset the girl at Starbucks 🤣
