Must Read Bus Owner Caught Trying to Hide Illegal Gas Cylinders After Deadly Fire
The driver, just like many taxi/bus/truck drivers are mostly ex-convicts who can not find a job and will accept anything to make a living. The driver of the bus FIRST went for a fire extinguisher and tried to open the doors before he ran away. The owner of the bus company has money and will buy his ass out like so many other rich Thais. Although he was cought pampering with the evidences, no arrest was made. Why? The DLT officers, like every official in Thailand, will be transferred to somewhere else and will continue their filthy businnes. THIS IS THAILAND, NOT A NANNY STATE -

Switching from Non-B to Marriage or Retirement Visa?
OK, having just read the whole post, I can guess why the change was denied, (and it ain't because of a change in the rules). The gent got his extension at Chamchuri (BOI), but tried to change it at CW, that is the most likely reason for his denial, not a change in the rules. That's my take on it anyway. -

Incredible US banking ineptness
Problems with US banks / accounts?? Maybe it's you that has the problem. If you have difficulty opening a bank account or applying for a new CC, it's you, not the bank or the lender....you, your problem. If you're trying to open a bank account or apply for a CC while you are in a foreign country....it's your lack of understanding common business practices and maybe lacking common sense and piss poor planning. If this fits you, then I'll put some things on FB marketplace to sell you. After you transfer the money to me, I'll ship the items to you right away! A few weeks ago (Sep '24), I opened new checking and savings accounts with a high rated and exclusive banking institution. that I've done biz with since '94. I did this here in Thailand, no phone calls, just my laptop. It was simple to complete online and then I transferred/deposited about 2000 THB / $50 to each account. A week later, I wired a large deposit using Swift from my BK Bank to my new US Bank account. It was almost instant and the next morning it was there when I checked online. Using Swift to transfer to the US was my only reason for opening a new chk/sav account with this bank that I've used for other account types for a 30 years. Not every US bank accept Swift or foreign currency transfers. If you're having problems, you may be someone that didn't have smart plans or any strategy and arrived in Thailand with ONE single debit card/ATM card, and probably one CC, or maybe no CC at all. You can read those sob stories on social media when someone can't access their bank or their money back in their home country. When I moved here several years ago, I arrived with 3 debit/ATM cards and 3 CC. The same 3 banks and cards I've had for 30+ years. I have no trouble keeping these accounts and cards and living here in in Thai. For those from other non-US countries...I feel grateful and blessed when I read about your woes and problems because you don't have the same freedom and liberties. -

Lets hope they stop shipment of their products, or any repair parts, until Thailand comes into compliance.
