Kinda true... I only manage to get normal atm card when I was a tourist and a debit card when I got my work permit. Funnily I did ask about credit card and kasikorn told me that I have to prepaid it eg. like put in 300k and they will issued a credit card of 300k spending limit... LMAO... what's the point?

泰国夜店很多人妖哦............

Oh yes. That's how it goes. But I was able to get a debit. As for credit card, I felt it does not make sense. You will be like buying the card limit with the deposit you put in. Might as well I just stick with debit.

I think mid 2021 should be open but will be selective. If Thailand still implement the 2 weeks compulsory quarantine at hotels I doubt many people will want to come back in.

Best to stick with debit, don’t spend what you don’t have. Dangerous lah. 😅

🤣😂 after a while, it does get boring. When I enter a gogo bar for the first time in my life, I was like 🤩 a kid in a candy store. So many ladies, so many pairs of boobies.. but after some time, it starts getting boring and repetitive.

Not in the next 6 to 9 months for sure.,

About this, many of us have explained on it quite some time ago...
Just for normal bank account with Debit is easy and no doc and only your passport and a local Thai guarantor will do...
***but not any branhces..***

Re: Living in Bangkok!
 

Its works about the same as local Singapore, if we dont have much doc to use to apply for c.c
Make a F.D and the amount the bank needed, and get the c.c
but many bank reluctant to do c.c for foreigner, becos paper works will kill them.
In Thailand, payment by mobile is so easy and also, cash is still king in Thailand.:D

Re: Living in Bangkok!
 

Agreed, that y do different thing is better.

Re: Living in Bangkok!
 

Like visit Angelina Massage on Petchburi Road? :D but that also after awhile start to get boring.. lol

Didn’t come onto Sammy forum for many months... 1 thing I find good about COVID is that the forum name’s calling, verbal abuse and newbie belittling also stopped. Hopefully when the borders reopened, the forum can keep it this way...

Roi Et Department of transaport confirmed with me using singapore license cannot convert to thai.. unless i show them document from embassy of singapore stated that the license have no expire date and must translate to thai and must go to MFA thailand to confirmed the translate is correct... this step is too long and troublesome..
Would like to check if i do it in bangkok chatuchak can i using singapore license and get thai license without going through embassy?
As i have the yellow book with my name and address i stay in thailand as proof of residence.

As i going down to embassy on sept too for my 90 days visa extension. :)
