  1. I had two relatively inactive accounts with TTB.  At one point, they told me to either become more active, or they would close the accounts.  I did the latter. it had nothing to do with my visa

    Instead of using technology to help their customers, they are using it to hassle them.  The last few times I visited (before closure) I was required to enter my phone number in their queue machine, before I could even get a queue ticket.  You might want to take your business elsewhere.  None of the other banks I deal with do that.

     

  2. An off topic, but related question:  A friend just bought a refillable, reusable card (for the MRT only).  It has a Visa logo on the front, a 16 digit Visa-like number on the back, and a CVV.  But it is not linked to his bank account, so is not a debit card.  And he was asked no questions about his employment or salary, so it is not a credit card either. Does anyone know what exactly this card is ?

  3. I have received conflicting information in response to the following question:  Is gay marriage possible in Thailand, if both partners are resident foreigners on one year visa extensions ?  Please cite your source.  I am not interested in rumours, gossip or hearsay.

  4. I guess someone has to answer this.  It isn't the first time I've had to answer my own question.

    I didn't see anything at Mabookrong.

    At Silom Complex,Saladaeng BTS Station:

       Double A Photocopying

       4th Floor

  5. Probably a longshot: I used to buy custom made insoles from a foreigner in Bangkok.  He has now sold the business, apparently to a medical centre in a "remote" section of Nonthaburi.  I have had no dealings with the business since it changed hands. I do have contact info. for someone there, who I presume can speak English.  Send me a private E-mail if you would like it.

  6. Posted six hours ago on Filipino Community in Thailand FB page:
