@Upasaka *******
yeah, she asked me if i had another bank account. I said i did, but it didn't have the amount needed constantly in there. So seemed kind of pointless

If they say it's a problem I'll just do as you say. Give them statements from all my accounts
George ******
@Graham ******
i only meant a screenshot from the bank website that shows the details of how that specific account works. So they know it's not a fixed account or anything

all my bank statements were official bank statements that I just printed out
George ******
@John ******
okay that's good to know. if they get back to me saying it's a problem I'll just send over my other bank statement like you did

Appreciate the info and advise

@Tim *******
i'm applying via the softpower medical route. But you might be right. maybe it's because most people are applying with workcation, so she is used to seeing statements with lots of money coming in and out

She's only the woman at the desk, so she's not the person who has the final say or anything. Just got me worried
George ******
@Graham ******
yeah, i donno. She didn't mention anything about the accessibility of the money. And I printed out some screenshots from my banks website showing that these accounts allow withdrawals

She basically said "why's there nothing on the statement between march and august?" ... all I could say is that it's because i hadn't made any transactions. and this is the full official bank statement

Anonymous participant you could have been working online the whole time and they wouldn't have cared. as long as it's not with a thai company or something

The whole "no work" thing is really about not working in Thailand or taking jobs from thai people. They turn a blind eye to the digital nomad type jobs

and it's the same for the DTV visa. Although there are rumours that they will start charging you tax if you stay in the country over 180 days. But that's probably a long way off. If it ever even happens

@Paul ******
yeah, my problem is i can't find a pair of trousers that actually fit me. I'm too big for asian sizes. it's like I'm putting on children's clothes

donno about the masks. but I haven't heard anyone mention it
George ******
@Kiaran ********
yeah, you have to go to gold shops to get money in Vietnam for some reason

Did you ask them to give you fresh notes or something?

I got some at the airport in Chiang mai before leaving. but now I look at them they don't look "perfect". so I'm worried they won't get accepted
George ******
hey, i've got another question... did you get your bank notes in hanoi?
