Bank account on overstay
Having opened a bank account with the appropriate visa, but now being on overstay, can this result in the account being blocked and closed? If you can no longer use it, can you regain access to the funds in the account before it's permanently closed? -

Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A crash occurred on the Nikom Phatthana–Pluak Daeng road near the junction of Route 15 in Rayong’s Nikom Phatthana district yesterday, resulting in two fatalities and two injuries. According to police, a box van (registration from Rayong) attempted to undertake and collided with the rear of a truck, carrying steel coils (registration from Chonburi), which was slowing to turn right. The van’s driver and a passenger seated beside him were killed instantly. Two other passengers in the vehicle sustained injuries, one critically and were taken to Nikom Phatthana Hospital for treatment. The van’s front was extensively damaged, with debris scattered across the road. The truck, which was fully loaded with steel coils, was left partially on the road, with its spare tyre dislodged and coils scattered along the roadside. Eyewitnesses reported that the box van, travelling at speed to pass the other vehicle, struck the truck as it slowed to make the turn. The force of the impact caused severe damage to both vehicles. Police confirmed that a full investigation is underway to determine the exact cause of the collision. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-08-22 -

Report Bangkok Cosmetic Horror: Doctors Jailed as Woman Left in Coma
Picture courtesy of Thai Rath Two Bangkok doctors are facing prison after a botched cosmetic surgery left a woman in a coma and her family drowning in medical debt. The legal battle has gripped Thailand, as both doctors have been sentenced for their roles in the tragic operation. Clinic owner and surgeon, Thunpaphat Poonyaphatworrachote, received a six-month sentence, while another doctor involved, Penlada, was sentenced to three months. The case revolves around 27-year-old Chayapha “Ning” Hirunyanit, who went into a coma following surgery at the clinic in Huai Khwang. The operation, intended to enhance Ning’s facial features, went horribly wrong. Ning was transferred to a private hospital in shock, believed to be an anaesthetic overdose. She has remained in a coma ever since, with her family unable to pay the accumulating medical bills, now over 10 million baht. Despite demanding 29 million baht in compensation from the surgeon, her family received no resolution. Ning’s brother, Apiphu Hirunyanit, turned to social media for help, reaching out to influencer Guntouch “Gun” Pongpaiboonwet to highlight their plight. Following the surgery, the surgeon changed his name and rebranded the clinic, adding to the family's frustration and agony. The Bangkok North Municipal Court handed down the sentences yesterday, bringing some form of justice but no peace for Ning, who remains hospitalised; her condition is reportedly unchanged. As her family continues to face mounting legal and financial pressures, the future remains uncertain. This incident is not isolated. In a related case, a woman earlier experienced severe blood loss after another aesthetic procedure in Bangkok, while two women suffered disfigurement from surgeries at a different Huay Kwang clinic last year. These cases underscore ongoing concerns about safety and accountability within the cosmetic surgery industry. Now that the court has delivered its verdict, pressure is growing for stricter laws to stop future tragedies. The victims' stories serve as harrowing reminders of the potential risks associated with cosmetic enhancements, urging more stringent oversight and patient protection measures in Thailand.

Banks, banks and banks again
I read about people having problems with banks: I read about people having their accounts frozen without warning. But what if one day my account is frozen and I can't provide the documents needed to unfreeze it, what happens? Will they close it and give me back the remaining money? Can I ask them to close it and give me back the remaining money?
