Ok. That would support the idea that mate's card was limited to 500 EUR.

Just proofs that even the hardest sentences can't stop greedy smugglers. 1.3 kg of cocaine. Would it have been heroin they would walk on death row.

Ted Bundy also looked like a smart guy ☹️

Maybe the thread would have got better response in the Pattaya forum? Not everyone knows where Soi 10 Thepprasit is.

And that is from experience with a foreign card? Sure I get 30k with a local bank card. I am not up to try, waste of money.

Kasikorn has. Recently tried with a mate. 20000 seems to be hardwired by Thai Banks independent of your foreign card or the ATM/bank used. Experienced by another mate. Though not 100% certain as 20220 Baht is more than 500 Euro which might be a limit on his card (for cash). Obviously they want to ensure their profit with the 220 Baht. 20220 THB ~ 550 EUR ~ 650 USD ~ 480 GBP

Two million is one more than I had carried around for buying the first car in 2011. Recently the granddaughter who is very digital savvy did 400k down payment in cash at Toyota.

Hopefully the average expat / pensioners will not be affected by that (200'000 USD). But who knows what the commercial banks will make of it.

Doesn't work on my mobile browsers (Chrome or Brave). Have to select (mark) as text and then copy/paste.

I am so "excited" what additional documents will be required. If that proofs to be annoying I will quit. No need for another account. How will proof for 12 months deposit work? Where will I get account statements accepted by immigration?

A hell lot of news and changes and it does not sound promising to me. "Add additional documents"... Too much to read for a quick evaluation. Like opening bank account in Thailand. I would start to look for an alternative. Or I am too pessimistic...

As usual it's a PITA to open links from the forum. Worse than before. Copy/paste as text to a browser address field.

I don't agree with the above. It is pure irony and sure not whining. Not the first such "warning" about Thailand in social media. It's addictive 😁

Do I have to delete the mahjong game from my mobile 😁 I wasn't aware that the Chinese play this gambling for money.

Cheese 2 Meat You is a useful addition for me. And of course TOPS being better than Khon Kaen.

Sugar cane cutting. Helping hands needed Beach rd in the night "Ladyboys" Ladyboys on Beach rd in the night... How many warnings/reports does it need? Hopeless. Some hillbillies from all over the world will repeat the same mistakes. You have counted? Have you counted the number of Indians beaten up, robbed.. in the ongoing season?

So another whole house in. Good luck tif you have a cam that can catch it in a narrow neighborhood 🙄 Time for professional photographers to engage 🫣

That was what I wanted to describe. Sometimes my English fails 😁

Funny enough the next thread in my list is blue blinking lights. Also seen in the past were red front lights.

No mirrors No helmet In cars not buckled up ... Safety? What's that, I have an amulet. Uneducated, stupid and zero law enforcement. And less air resistance. Adds enormous to max speed combined with head between the handle bars.

Oh yes thunderstorms last two days. Not experienced for months. Nice cool in the morning.

Thanks for another warning about marriage extension. I could do but it's the absolute last resort. The house photo stuff is pure harassment. Didn't know that Chaiyaphum is that bad. Manila wouldn't be my alternative 😊 Wife not having updated her ID sounds so familiar and a no go for immigration. Typical let it be (ours have "lost/can't find housebook", no hurry to visit amphoe).

Beginning of April next attempt.

Payment should still work with 3BB app. This magic "88" is a key to AIS app.

After being eaten by AIS things have become complicated. Fusion of the companies not completed. After long time I started 3BB app and was confused too. Just hope my prepayment until July is correctly booked. Will have a look again.
