Yes I noticed new cars were far more expensive than Europe. What is the reason for that?

If it has anything to do with a Russian company it might be blocked due to the ‘invasion’ of Ukraine.

It must have changed then. I opened account in one branch a few years ago, but use another for everything and have done so in the last week.

I have a BB account and can visit any branch to get things done.

Thanks Brandon. Because I have the O retirement visa, I bought a years health insurance with Cigna. It covers corona. But I can see me having problems with it should I try to apply for the Thai pass. As it’s not holiday insurance and I doubt it covers me for $50k for corona.

I was supposed to go to Cambodia, but due to the hassles just stayed in Thailand. Question … if I have an O retirement visa, do I need a Thailand pass to get back in?

Francis, Thanks. Can I use online banking app and print out statement with all payments going into the account?

Thank you Nick. Ok that’s not a problem for me then. I can meet that criteria using WISE and Bangkok Bank. Cheers buddy 👍🏻

Read all these comments and confused. Is it true that if I pay thb into my account every month, that I can extend my visa after the initial one year?

I used to have a uk licence and was always led to believe I could drive up to a 125cc. Some people say yes, some say no, so god only knows. Last year I changed my uk licence to a Spanish licence. Now I am definitely covered for scooters and motorbikes up to a certain weight and that covers bikes a lot heavier than 125cc. So it’s a right mess.
