  1. Im not being critical, just theorising on how the distance could be 15k.
  2. The 1st leg would have been really easy; virtually just drifting down with the current, but swimming back would have been hard work against the flow. I suspect that to please the crowds he swam downstream close to the Thai shore then maybe crossed the river directly just north of the sandbank, where it is quite wide, and then downstream close to the Laos shore for the spectators there. If a similar route on return this could add the distance to make it a 15k swim.
  3. From your own link: The first thing to know (which might put you somewhat at ease) is that these card readers do not store any of your details on the device itself. Whenever you slip in your card or punch in your PIN, you can rest assured knowing that the reader isn't holding onto any of that. This is good news for those worried about mobile online banking. Basically, by requiring a card reader for certain actions, you're forced to carry that card reader around with you if you ever want to perform those actions while on the go. Some card readers are universal, meaning they can read and generate codes for any EMV card, as long as the card is compatible with the reader's online bank. So in that sense, you could use someone else's card reader when necessary, and their reader wouldn't store anything about your account or card.
  4. U r right I could be a scammer but lets use a bit of common sense here. Check my profile, Im a platinum member been posting on here for years. But I really dont give a s h i t. If no-one wants them they will go in the bin.
  5. I am just trying to help out after reading on here last year that someone's card reader had expired and they couldnt get a new one from their UK bank. Others posted similarly. I return to the UK every summer, and after switching banks a few times, which is quite lucrative in the UK, I have 3 card readers to spare. No one will be asked to provide me with their bank details.
  6. All UK banks which require the use of a card reader. Their use is not restricted to the bank that issued them.
  7. If you already have a joint bank account with Santander, I would think it would be straightforward to open another in your name only with them, and pay Wise from this account.
  8. If you dont know, you dont need one.
  9. I just returned from the UK with 3 spare bank card readers. If anyone needs one please PM me.
  10. Did you have Kice krispies for breakfast? That would explain everything...555
  11. No excuse though. If he has narcolepsy he should never be driving!
  12. P i s s e d as a fart! ....Probably!
  13. Public bus and minibus drivers should be targeted first, as in my experience as a passenger, they are the biggest offenders posing a huge risk to their passengers. Hopefully photos and videos taken by passengers of offending drivers will be accepted as evidence.
  14. These are the only suckers who will be caught as car phone users are mostly hidden by tinted glass.
