A friend is in Trat on a marriage visa. Went to the bank with his wife.

He was declined entry, had to stay outside whilst his wife had to deal with his bank account.

You can't make this stuff up .. Ridiculous.

I have no reason to disbelieve my friend from Holland. At the start of the pandemic he was refused entry to the bank and his wife was not.
