Sorry, I don't get it. What does opening a bank account have to do with "extension paperwork" ?

I will only stay for a short while in Pattaya. Would a TM30 form given by a hotel or AirBnb host be enough?

Suggestions needed for immigration and Bangkok Bank
I want to open a Bangkok Bank account in Pattaya or Jomtien. I've got a long-term visa. 1) Which immigration office is the best to go to, to get a residence certificate for opening a bank account? And is there a special department at the immigration office to get a residence certificate, so you don't have to wait that long? 2) What's a good branch of Bangkok Bank where you can open a bank account relatively fast? I've read that at the Jomtien branch it can take a long time.

The taste of boiled eggs
I've never liked the taste of boiled eggs that much in Thailand, also not the taste of "free- range eggs" or the "cage-free eggs". Is it the different food that's being given to the chickens here?

Facebook cannot send a message occasionally
Occasionally I'm not able to send a message on facebook, also when I set my location to be in Thailand by using a VPN. Please have a look at the attached screenshot. This has already been going on for months. I've looked on the internet to solve this problem but couldn't find any information. Any solutions?

Buying a second hand scooter?
I'd like to buy a second hand Honda Scoopy but I don't have much technical knowledge. What's the best way to ensure I'm buying a good bike? I was thinking of bringing a motorshop technician with me so he could check the bike. Or are there other and better ways to get me a bike that doesn't have any hidden defects?

French guys in their Porsche on Koh Samui?
What happened to those 2 French (?) guys in their Porsche on Koh Samui? One of them knocked a Thai man unconscious in the middle of the night during a fight. It happened already a few months ago. Are they still in jail?

What happened to Limbo? I'm talking about many, many years ago. He used to be a moderator of this forum for a while. Just curious. Anyone who knows?

Fraudulent Online Payments
- Fraudulent Online Payments
No extra authentication was required, if so I of course wouldn't have confirmed this payment. So the airline company has to pay the chargeback? And what if the bank leaves this case for what it is (I haven't been too friendly to them because in my opinion they didn't provide sufficient customer service, so maybe that won't help my case) do I then have a(nother) way to pressure the bank to come forward with the money?- Fraudulent Online Payments
Thank you. I'm not sure how the payment was made but I guess my debit card data were leaked somewhere and no extra authentication was required. Reading your comment it looks like I actually have a fairly big chance of getting back my money, or did I misread you?- Fraudulent Online Payments
For the first time in my life I've been the victim of fraudulent online payments by someone using the data of my debit card. It happened last Sunday, and the total damage was about €300. I immediately blocked the card. On my online banking app I requested a refund but it was rejected because the money already had been claimed by the merchant. I contacted my online bank. I actually don't use this bank often and haven't put that much money on it. That's maybe a reason why this bank's customer service didn't appear to be very interested in this fraud, they only sent me an email and didn't answer specific questions. Very disappointing. I've sent the merchant an email after the refund was rejected. I also requested a chargeback on my banking app. By the way, the merchant was a Canadian airline company. I don't know if or how they investigate this case, but it could be a starting point to look at the passenger who flew with the ticket. Or isn't it as simple as this? So I wonder, is there any chance of getting my money back? And are there any other steps that I could take?- Wireless microphone?
If I have a Zoom meeting with someone else, I can hear the other person clearly also because I use a speaker, but the person at the other end doesn't hear me clearly enough. Should the person at the other end do something about it, maybe use a speaker as well or can the problem also be fixed if I start to use a wireless microphone?- Induction cookers and frying pans?
You've got a point there, Alan! Wondering how this will end...????- Induction cookers and frying pans?
I ordered it already but fortunately enough could cancel it in time...????- Induction cookers and frying pans?
Any suggestion how to get the non-stick layer removed?- gasoline price
Not being a motorist myself, can anyone tell me the cost of gasoline for a car per kilometer under normal circumstances?- Induction cookers and frying pans?
Actually now I realize I misspelled the word...???? It should of course have been a "WOK"-shaped frying pan...????- Induction cookers and frying pans?
Of course the word is getting deleted again...???? Anyway, the word starts with a "W", followed by "O" and the last letter is a "G"...???? - Fraudulent Online Payments
