Report Thailand to Verify 700,000 Foreigner-Registered Phone Numbers for Mobile Banking Use
I have two bank accounts here. SCB required me to verify my phone number about six weeks ago which I did and it was successful... The Bangkok bank one I actually changed the registered phone number to my other SIM card, which is registered in my name about 18 months ago so I'm pretty sure I'm okay. -

Transport Driving Licence Renewals Go Digital: No More Tests Needed
Sure it is, but that is an hours drive away! And it is now so overcrowded that it can take many hours to get prepared cussed there! So many will no doubt stick with 5,000thb “luxury limousine priority service” (I am sure that if necessary they can arrange for one to pass all the tests!!). -

Passport expiring
So does this mean that you have now finally given up on the lousy procedures for renewing UK passports from Thailand, of which you were fulsomely singing the praises as being the very best thing in passport renewals since sliced bread when they were inflicted on us back in 2014? -

Why is there this kind of "impossible communication" between farang and thais ?
Yeah but you're more likely to exchange small talk with a European grocery checkout clerk than a Thai one. I've observed Thai customers barely acknowledge checkout clerks or any service employee when they are addressed. Yesterday, a Dairy Queen employee asked a customer if it was his order. He barely mustered up the strength to say anything. He just grunted something. Thais aren't like Americans; who will engage in small talk with people who are serving them. Sure, in small shops and small towns, there may be some small talk between people who know each other, but almost never between a visitor from outside or someone who is shopping at a particular store for the first time. I do engage in small talk sometimes, though rarely with busy clerks, unless related to my shopping.
