For all those who fret about the tiny amount of extra interest you can get on 800k, and the loons who worry about thai banks blah blah blah, just set up a standing order for 65k from UK to Thai - after all you have to live off something! There, no 800k, no expensive agents, no loss of interest, no seasoning AND you'll have a LEGAL extension as opposed to the ILLEGAL agent route. You can thank me later

Like who? Monthly transfers are an absolute staple! Providing you supply a credit advice from your THAI bank, they cannot refuse it.

@Paul *******

Me a whiner ? hahaha fuck me go back and read the 15 million words you've spewed out protesting against someone else having an opinion!! Judging or opinions? Your clear intolerance of others helps you tick every box of the little list at the end of your latest sermon

Aren't you anonymous? If I put a picture up of Mickey Mouse and named myself Mike Tyson do I then have credibility because theres a name and a picture? A quick search just told me 16% of everyone you talk to on here aren't using their real name. Why would that trigger you? Weird. However if you don't understand that having to use agents money is very clearly tied into not having the required funds to not be an economic non entity to the host country, your point correct? then I'm going to have to admit I've lost you already!

@David **********

It's totally different, the application is different. Agents cannot get near the decision process.

@David **********

They can't

@Paul *******

Has it not occured to you, it could be to deter people turning up here without a pot to piss in? Hmmm...

@David ******

Exactly that - stories!

@David ******

Provide one example where a bank manager has kept someones 800k please...

@Paul *******

lol a bit like refugees arriving in Europe and the knuckledraggers go ballistic that they can't support themselves blah blah blah (because its illegal to work but they sidestep that bit) but when someone suggests if you aren't going to make much of a contribution coming to Thailand with next to fuck all in funds all the toys get thrown around. Anyone travelling to any country down to their last 10k and no plan WILL be a burden on that country and prevented from making that journey.
