actually you can buy Thai baht within your Revolut account. Taking advantage of any peaks in exchange rates at anytime you want. When you use your Revolut debit card. It withdraws the baht first from your account.

so you really think it’s reasonable for an airline clerk to know all the specifics rules in each country’s immigration policy. Sorry but that’s asking too much.

A DTV doesn’t qualify you for bank account eligibility. It’s the DTV holders that have gotten them in trouble with the international banking system. Excessive money laundering from scam call centers and certain countries with international financial restrictions flowing in. The Thai banking system is under pressure from international regulators. KYC, know your customer, is international banking law.

I did this. I am one of thousands of people who live at the KOA in Spearfish. The locals that actually live there don’t like us voting in their local elections tho.

set yourself up with a South Dakota residency. It’s easy. Spend 1 night and get a Personal Mailbox from one of a few companies doing this. Go to the DMV and get a drivers license. You will then be an official resident of South Dakota. No state income tax.

The mailbox company will let you know when you receive mail. Then you decide to open and scan, shred or have forwarded somewhere. $150 a year plus any added expenses over the monthly mail allowance.

Is that the dowry?

I decided to get a few extra $ converted in my account before it gets worse.

@Robert *****

you might want to check if you really still have that bank account. Many have been closed and frozen. Go thru this groups posts for examples of closures.

When you come back you get another 60day. Unless you are denied entry

My bank manager yesterday said they were just informed some customers may have to wait 6 to 8 weeks.
