  1. It's in the app, at least for Kasikorn and Krungsri. You need to register first, then people can either pay to your phone number or using your QR code. Can only register one account. .
  2. Who gives a rat's backside?
  3. Krungsri uses the app plus 6 digit OTP like SCB Kasikorn uses the QR code method same as Bangkok Bank Anyone know if the phone's location is used as extra security to confirm you're at the ATM? .
  4. This guy seems so forgetful it was probably written down on a piece of paper tucked inside the phone case.
  5. It's subjective rather than based on measured data, just Joe Farang thinks it's dirty.
  6. I closed my Abbey National/Santander account because of issues with failing the ID verification process. Due to the time zones working in the Russian Far East I invariably ended up with a call centre in Delhi, where my inability to understand what I was being asked meant my being forwarded to the 24hr customer services desk in the UK, who fixed the issue after confirming it really was me. I just couldn't be bothered with the extra hassle. .
  7. https://www.techrepublic.com/article/hand-of-thief-malware-could-be-dangerous-if-you-install-it/ "The good news is that Hand of Thief must have the root (or sudo) password in order to install. If you don’t enter the password, it can’t add itself to your machine."
  8. Clearly life in the old dog yet, he was in Samui yesterday at the Centara Reserve and he plays The Centara Grand Beach Resort Phuket tomorrow night. Only 10k with dinner in Phuket.
  9. Yeah right! That didn't go so well in Europe with refugees from Syria and Libya did it. But you're forgetting internal migration, projections for the USA have some 90 to 150 million people needing to relocate because of sea rise or drought by 2050. .
  10. Sure, but there weren't 8 billion humans on the planet then. Worse over 1 billion live in low lying areas susceptible to flooding or rises in sea level, whilst over 2 billion are living in drought prone areas. These 3 billion plus aren't going to stay put - most likely moving to an area near you.

    Bum guns

    Karat brand have been the most reliable for me.
  12. It would be very difficult to stage a free and fair referendum in the southern provinces. There would be considerable pressure on voters from the separatists to vote one way, and the government to vote the other. I suspect most are happy to remain part of Thailand but with the acceptance of Pattani-Malay (Jawi) as an official language, an end to Thaification, and recognition of their history and culture. Many would also want to see the implementation Sharia law, similar to Malaysia, where Sharia Courts deal with the Islamic laws relating to betrothal, marriage, inheritance, apostasy and divorce. Sharia law would not apply to non-Muslims. .
  13. Yes. But Kasikorn bank staff are more prone to saying you can't do something, probably because they're less well trained than Krungsri bank staff. They also try to package insurance policies with stuff, so just be on your toes. .
  14. I find the Kasikorn banking app better than Krungsri. But I find the Krungsri bank staff better at getting stuff done. .
  15. App says Android 5 and up, so the OS isn't the issue. If you've done the uninstall - install and you say the phone hasn't been rooted, the only things left are conflict with other app, or with Xiaomi and or its set up.
  16. Out of interest what make of phone are you using and what version of Android? I've had no problems with the Krungsri App on my Samsung, I'm running Android 12. .
  17. Buy yourself a UPS - fixes the issue of the 2 second black out.
  18. Just had my 2nd booster jab. Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai vaccination center is in the car park. Pfizer jabs available 1pm to 4pm every Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Just walk in with your existing vaccination certificate and passport - no charge.
  19. Would you really put on a t-shirt identifying who you were? Maybe a false flag, someone doesn't like competition from Big-C.
  20. All religion is nonsense. Religion is only one facet of the issues in the South. The primary grievance is the issue of recognition. The 2006 report of the National Reconciliation Commission was accepted by the Thaksin government but rejected by the Privy Council, the stumbling block being the recognition of Pattani-Malay (Yawi) as a working language in the region, Prem Tinsulanonda stated "The country is Thai and the language is Thai" so an opportunity for peace was lost.
  21. Same the World over, banks are quick to implement rate hikes on their borrowers, but slow to pass any benefit to their savers.
  22. Well that's because it is an insurgency, an armed rebellion against an occupying force, no one has declared a jihad. This is a dispute about recognition, recognition that the Pattani States have their own history, culture, language and religion. A recognition that the land was carved up and apportioned between British Malaya and Siam with no reference or asking the people that live there and a rejection of the policy of 'Thaification'. Before anyone suggests I condone the violence, no I don't, but I at least understand why the people are angry. .
  23. That's why my master password is a combination of the make, colour and registration plate of the first family car I can remember as a child. One of those things that's stuck in my head more than 60 years, so even if I got Alzheimer's there's a chance I might remember it.
