@Sasi ***********

your country will cry when all the retired expats move to Cambodia (oh that one must hurt right now), Vietnam, etc...

You might not want to see old foreigners spending their last days on Thailand, but the Thai economy has projections based on the assumption that these people will still come here.

Same like shooting in the foot over tourism.

You want only the top 10% rich retirees and tourists in your country? But you provide a 3rd world, very low budget, unprofessional and disorganized experience, full of cheap prostituses everywhere you go in public.

The latter will never appeal to the former. Never. It's a crazy pipe dream Thailand is fantasizing about.

Acting on it will only make things worse for Thailand.

If you offer trash, expect trash. Don't cry.

And 3, 2, 1... Am I blocked yet? (I know you won't want to hear this as a Thai, but it's the truth).

@David ********

"you're"

@Stan *********

wasn't there just a recent crackdown on fake agencies offering driver's licenses the illegal way?

I see you've suggested one such agency.

@Jesper ******

so they created this shitstorm for themselves by allowing tourists to open accounts. Now they have to close them all. Are these the actions of a "best bank"?

Hahaha and Bangkok Bank was once condisdered "the best bank for foreigners". By who, I think the foreigners themselves.

Looki now...

@Chuck ********

because he is no longer studying. ED visa is not for tourism. It's for studying. Isn't it logic that when your course has competed, there is no more reason for you to be here? It's just logic. People are just not used to Thailand enforcing it's rules.

@Meaw ******

then explain to me why my krungsri bank account has blocked all incoming deposits from wise, for months already now?

@Nigel ********

immigration department is the one to ask.

It seems you're the one that's not using the meter.....

Police drive around with facial recognition cameras and that's how they nab many overstayers. You might not see them before they see you. Then it's holding cell and deportation with ban.

Go to immigration now and apologetically sort it out.

They treat people that hand themselves in very differently to ones they find in the street.
