What should travelers know about booking hotels through Expedia during the COVID pandemic?
Ron ******************
Look on the travel apps for the hotel you like to get a price then Google the hotel and contact them directly, 90% of the time they offer the same or lower price. Book direct to save money and cut out the parasites, in many cases no deposit needed as with apps.

How can I provide 'proof of life' for my Thai government pension while in the UK?
Ron ******************
@Dave ********
 social security office. I presume the pension you are referring to is a SSO one. When you lived in Thailand you are registered at a specific SSO and you need to contact that office to ask.

Can I keep my Bangkok Bank account after moving abroad while maintaining a foreign address?
Ron ******************
You must just keep enough funds in to pay the account fees and they will not close it. As for your ATM card, it must be used to avoid deactivation.

What are my options for obtaining a Thai visa when I'm asked for a letter of invitation from my wife?
Ron ******************
@Richard ******
 ask the embassy that you are going to for the requirements. It's ill advised to get that kind of info here as it may differ between embassies. I would advise you to take your wife on a trip with you to the embassy, that way you're more certain.

How can I nullify a previous will made in Thailand without making a new one?
Ron ******************
If you have assets in Thailand you must have a Thai will. In this will you replace all previous wills, thus curting out your ex. Your home country will is not valid in Thailand and your Thai will is not valid in your home country.
