This might be due to the destination countries customs/postal check. That happens before the letter is forwarded to the postal organization. I know lenghty delays from Frankfurt (Germany).

KhunBENQ replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Happened on the late evening of Feb 28, she returned next morning Mar 1. Reported on March 3. I would not waste two days to report and then urge police to be quick -
Thailand's 2025 Visa-Free Travel: 36 Countries Announced
KhunBENQ replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The abuse of visa exempt to South Korea was always high. Many denials, tours stopped before departure. An army of illegal workers. (a nephew of my wife died in SK from a motorbike accident after many years of working without legal status). Seems SK now requires an ETA to be applied electronically before departure. Includes proof of income etc -
Passenger Sat by Deceased Woman: Qatar Airways Offers Support

The whole excitement is about the four hours without reseating. Otherwise I don't see what they can do. Agree with the post above. Don't think it's a good idea to create attention by towing a corpse along the aisle through the plane. Body bag on board? -
All in one machines, unfortunately still rare (at least at Bangkok Bank). Many cash deposit machines also work as ATM.

Not using deposit often. But until then it was good enough to put the bank card into the slot and type the pin as "identification". Deposit to own account of course. No id, no card, other person's account: different matter Too long ago to comment on cash deposit at the teller. Some people are not able to update the bank book at the machine? For book update at the teller no I'd requested. Wonder whether they can dress themselves😳 I have internet banking for all accounts and do know what's going on whenever I want. Kasikorn beeps at me for every transaction whatsoever. Bangkok Bank and SCB on major transactions. My piece of mind: checking all accounts before breakfast 😁

Love these maximum ciphered location names although Pattaya 3rd rd wouldn't help much to find the location. -

In front of Central on beach rd? You must have overlooked a lot 😁 For advanced learning: Park on the "bus stop" in front of the deserted plot a bit further south😁 (ever seen a bus there?) Impound plot at some Soi of South Pattaya Rd?

I got it by email from Kbank with forms attached and not that alarming tone. Do they have your email? -

As I know banks are obliged to update the tax status of foreign account holders. -

KhunBENQ replied to Mutt Daeng's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Absolutely no indication on that. Some Immigration boss stated that they are not involved with tax affairs. (Current status, I don't participate in scaremongerin of the future) -

Not the first bank. Got it from Kasikorn. Bangkok Bank posted here. I filled the forms as good as possible (sometime in January). Not heard from them again I am not US citizen -
Driving licence and permit to drive
KhunBENQ replied to DonniePeverley's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Might need a separate thread in the Bangkok forum? -
Driving licence and permit to drive
KhunBENQ replied to DonniePeverley's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Some unclear wording. Who is we? You >purchased< a >permit<? Meaning an international driving permit (IDP)? Sounds like you want to buy a car in your name AND insure in your name AND drive? Getting Thai driving license with home license and IDP is pretty straightforward at the Departement of Land Transport (DLT). Appropriate visa/permit to stay required (what you have?). Where do you live? -

A friend in Jomtien wants to change his German pension payments go to Kasikorn (Jomtien, Soi 2). Therefore he has to fill a form with his data/account nr. etc. Best available is a form in German/English/French. The data has to be confirmed by the bank. Does anyone have experience whether this will work? He is somewhat handicapped. So try to avoid unnecessary trips.
