Is it better to have both bank accounts for visa extension and daily expenses at the same bank or at different banks in Thailand?

How easy is it to obtain medical prescriptions, such as blood pressure and thyroid medications, in Thailand?

Steve *******

I take two different blood pressure tablets everyday. Once every 5 months go to the local government hospital. Have blood test to ensure tablets aren't causing liver and kidney problems. See a doctor for a chat then get another 5 months of tablets. All for the grand cost of 6-700 bht.

What happens to the 800,000 baht deposit in a Thai bank account if the account holder dies?

Steve *******

Is there any point in making a Thai will if my only benefactors are in the UK. Can you state that any funds are returned to my UK bank. I just have a feeling that there is very little chance of that happening.

Is it acceptable to keep the 800k in a separate account for visa extension purposes in Thailand?

Steve *******

I had an account with Bangkok Bank with the 800,000 for the yearly visa extension. As I didn't want to touch that money I just opened a second account with Bangkok Bank which is used for day to day expenses.

Can I perform maintenance and gardening at my own home in Thailand without a work permit?

Steve *******

No problem with that. Keep the jobs for Thais. Maybe if our home countries did the same we wouldn't be in the shit we are. Anyway probably OK if we work on something we own.

What are the steps to report a TM 30 after moving to Chiang Mai with a retirement visa from Pattaya?

Steve *******

shouldn't make any difference. My bank account (Bangkok Bank) was originally set up in Udon Thani when I was living there. Now live in Nong Khai and the Bank there now supplies all my info for immigration. I have changed my address with the bank. So even though my account is still with Udon bank, they have my Nong Khai address.
