OK, so not me being stupid you can not transfer out of a fixed deposit account using the Bangkok bank website. Thanks for the confirmation. My interest is always added to the fixed deposit account when it renews. Yes, I could phone them but I do not like phoning Thai call centres (actually any call centre) and also suspect it can not be done by phone either.

Is is possible to transfer money from a Bangkok Bank Fixed deposit account to another Bangkok Bank savings account using their website? I want to transfer the interest earned this year into my savings account but can not find anyway to do it on the website. As I'm in the UK I can not go to the branch, difficult to phone them and I can not make the app work. Only their website is available to me.

To avoid edge opening all the time try installing msEdgeRedirect. Every time something tries to open in edge it instead opens in your default browser. Now you do not have to uninstall edge, it is, instead, just ignored.

I can not make the face recognition work either, thought it was my beard as it always says it can not see my chin.

Don't forget if you want to go to the EU the passport must be less than 10years old from date of issue. So if, like me, you renewed 9 months early and have to have 6 months of validity for the EU then you have to renew 15 months before your passport expires

Thanks KhunBENQ - With KrungThai I can not register for online banking with the mobile app - and they have closed their web based internet banking. Bankgok bank says turn off WiFi, but using mobile data they can not recognize my phone number. Probably because I use an eSIM that does not have a phone number and goes via HongKong or else I use my UK data. I don't have data in Thailand as I never need it, except (it seems) for BKK bank app. At least their web based banking still works.

Has anyone with a beard managed to register for online banking when photo recognition is required? With KrungThai I get nothing but "Can't see your chin" and "Can't see your mouth". I assume the problem is the beard. Since KTB do not have a website to do banking and I can not get their app to work I plan on closing the account. Except that will take too long in the bank so I'll just run the account down to B10 and they can close it for me.

Maybe because I am too old but at 108 Clinic I had to see a doctor and that took a little over 1 hour and cost B300 for the Dr and B60 for the certificate. But do love their self service blood pressure machines - better than anything I have seen elsewhere.

Recently notice a change booking train tickets CNX to BKK. The 18:00 express can be booked up to 90 days ahead, all the rest of the trains just 30 days as before.

I knew I had see it somewhere. I'm renewing an expired 5 year to 5 year licence. Just need the medical certificate now, found out that Suan Dok will do one at the 108 clinic. Don't know the price yet.

Klaimor hospital on Hang Dong road is good for the medical certificate but inconvenient for me. Is there any hospital in T. Suthep that is as easy and as cheap to use? Suan Dok probably does but it is such a warren it's probably quicker to go to Klaimor! Also, can anyone confirm that Foreigners do not need an appointment at Hang Dong?

12 month fixed deposit always works for me - but other periods are not allowed for some reason.

Stay with Quicken - only problem in Windows 10 is that the window opens blank, you have to change the window size to see all the details. Quicken works in multiple currencies, nothing else I tried does that satisfactorily. If Microsoft finally breaks quicken it will work on a Virtual machine - there are at least 2 that are free and you can install WinXP and everything works fine.

Thanks for the replies, just as I thought you have to be very naughty to get refused an "Under Consideration". But it is interesting that the procedure does check and you can be refuse.

Having just got an "under consideration" for a visa conversion I started wondering. Does "Under Consideration" ever get refused?
