Rachel Robert’s "Sporting Life": Barking like a Welsh Corgi
So then, why do you insist upon hiding your light under a bushel? But, I would advise using the NRSV, instead, which is required reading at Yale University.... Wow... The cats, outside my house, are yowling a mean-streak this night. Time to read the NRSV translation of the Bible, I guess. -

Retired expat out there who has been issued with a TIN number?
My experience is a small amount different. For a trading account, once the Canadian bank determined I was no longer a resident of Canada, the money was frozen. There was no one year notice. It was frozen immediately and I ended up contacting them to find out why. They insisted I provide a tax ID to unfreeze. After I provided the yellow-book/pink-ID # they then advised I could only sell equities and move equities to cash (but not purchase new equities). ... or I could close the account (transferring the money out). That is what i did. I transferred the money out (albeit it took me a while to find a Canadian institution that would let me transfer money to, with my being a non-resident to Canada - complicating this was my transferring a Canadian Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) - sort of a USA 401k equivalent). i managed to open a new account with another Canadian financial institution who were ok with me not being a Canadian resident (as long as i was a Canadian citizen), and I transferred my financial equities + cash there. To open the new account they also insisted i provide a Thai tax ID. They too accepted the Thai yellow-book/pink-ID #. I would have happily provided an active Thai tax ID to the Canadian financial institutions, if the Thai RD would have provided such to me when I applied. Instead the Thai RD turned down my TIN application (with a caveat from the Thai RD that my pink-ID# could be the TIN if and when they activated such). As I posted, since I had no Thai income and I was not bringing money into Thailand, I did not meet their criteria for requiring a Thai TIN. For the Phuket RD branch (and this may be true for other RD branches), one REALLY needs to let them know that the Thai TIN is absolutely necessary to unfreeze a foreign account. And emphasize that point to the Phuket RD, else in my experience, they will deny the TIN. -

All I know is i don't belong. I've made peace with that a long time ago. Most of my frail deeds go unnoticed. -

Why is our world, everything we read, increasingly filled with G
By the way, this evening, the local cats are yowling-up a storm. Must be the season of the witch, back again, once more. Which reminds me of this wonderful tune: The cats around here, in this neighborhood, are mostly cute and quiet. But, every few months, things get noisy around here...... We take the good with the bad. And, the bad with the good little red riding hood.- 1

UK Vodafone sim for sms
I've been using a Vodafone sim here for more than 15 years and it works just fine, it's one of those pay monthly deals. But there's a problem - if you ever get a new sim it needs to be 'activated' in the UK which means you need someone there to activate it and then mail it over which means that unless you happen to be going back it's a bit of a pain. Probably the same with most UK companies as I think as it's a 'telecom industry requirement' I believe. So don't just get one and have it mailed out here - not without getting someone to stick it in a phone first and 'activate it' - whatever that involves. I still have a larger sim card from before the current size was introduced and I can tell you that they can manually trim them down with some kind of cutting template but if that fails in some way then I'm stuck without the UK phone number for a while which is a bit of an inconvenience as I do use it for some things, so for now I leave it in a really old phone which is still chugging along - they don't sell phones which accept this type of sim any more - even used ones - I've looked and couldn't find any. It may be the same with 'UK activation' for the modern e-sims issued in the UK as well. Activate first then never a problem.... So that's something to consider.
