  1. I suggest you contact a respectable agent who can give you some advice.
  2. Warning issued to Revolut customers after more than £200,000 stolen from two accounts A warning has been issued to Revolut customers after takeover scammers stole more than £200,000 from two accounts. Both victims saw their accounts targeted by fraudsters who passed the digital bank's selfie security checks just days apart, according to Which?. The consumer watchdog said one of the victims was on the brink of bankruptcy after £165,000 was taken from their account, while the other had lost more than £40,000 in 10 minutes. The criminals pretended to be part of the Revolut fraud team, calling about suspicious activity and passing a series of security checks to hack into the customers' accounts. Which? said Revolut investigated both cases and would not refund any of the losses because its multi-factor authentication checks were completed. Revolut has told the victims it will not refund the money, according to Which?Reuters This included the use of a selfie to gain access to the account, a security code being entered after it was sent by text and a login from a new device after an email was sent to a registered address. Revolut told Sky News it was aware of a "recent increase" in advanced account takeover scam attempts, and it was "deeply concerned" by the number of crimes being committed using fake phone calls. "We are sorry to hear of any instance where our customers have been targeted by ruthless and sophisticated criminals. Each potential fraud case concerning a Revolut customer is carefully investigated and assessed independently of other cases," it said. It also said it was "continuously strengthening" its fraud controls to stay one step ahead of new trends.

  3. Sounds a bit bogus to me. Maybe it was competing with Gaza and Kiev 😄
  4. I use Wise, I live in Thailand and they say their debit cards not available here yet. Can I get a debit card from Revolut? I can use a relatives address in the UK.
  5. Yes I agree completely. A practice exists not to impose income taxes on foreign retirees under certain circumstances. That practice has NOT changed. Yet some foreigners have mistakenly submitted tax returns which are not necessary and a few of them are now trying to suggest to the rest of us we should do the same. And of course the revenue dept lap it all up. Dear oh dear!
  6. Mike Lister: Please tell us your qualifications to give advice on Thai tax law? Answer: None at all! And stop posting ludicrous misinformation . Get a life please.
  7. We are now into 2024 and no one reports any such thing. And I do understand downstream.
  8. Thank u for your helpful post. Now I have been away for a few times and for a few days (BKK to Pattaya stayed hotel). I have no idea if the hotel filed a TM 30 for me. I thought if I in BKK on retirement extension and away from my permanent address in Thailand for a few days to another place in Thailand then no need to file anything with CW immigration?
  9. I will be doing my retirement extension in the next month. I have a copy of my Landlords TM 30 filed. I have not left Thailand since that was filed. So no need to make a new TM 30 right?
  10. Just to clarify and it is my understanding: If you do your 90 day on line and at the end of the 15 day your App is not approved then Immigration told me specifically there is another 7 days grace period. If by that time there is no on line approval you can can go to immigration in person within the 7 days grace period and get the 90 day approval. By going to the immigration in that period you are doing your App in person and not on line.
  11. Use the 800k in bank for 1 year renewal for 1 year retirement Visa. Assume as long as there remains for the last year a minimum of 800k I can withdraw any interest accrued above that sum of 800k?
  12. Agree: causing unnecessary stress and we need to get the precise new regulations, so we know where we stand and can then deal with it.
  13. So all retirees here in Thailand who stay 180 days in 1 year now need to file tax returns?!? Please identity precisely the new law or practice which states this? No need to say retirees are tax residents we know that but up until now no obligation to file tax returns and nothing in the new rule say that is going to change for retirees.
