Do these even exist in Thailand? I have a $250 USD bill that I desperately need paid, and can't get it paid. I have a drawer full of cash, but no way to turn that into an online payment. Leo has a Laos bank account, but no bank card associated with it.

Asked my parents twice, and nope. Asked my farang neighbor, and nope. Sent Leo to Western Union to pay the bill, and nope -- can't send money to a company name for some reason, and only a personal name.

It's imperative I get this bill paid asap. Does anyone have info on prepaid credit / debit cards in Thailand? Are they even available?

Actually, they do take bitcoin which is one main reason I'm with them. My server is currently suspended though, so I'm locked out of my bitcoin at the moment, as my "wallet" is on my server.

Send a wire transfer how? Neither Leo or myself have a Thai bank account, nor are we capable of getting one. I can't because I'm illegal, and Leo can't because he doesn't have a work permid (we've tried, multiple banks).

I've been trying for like 4 days to get this fucken bill paid with no success.

Does anyone here by chance have both, a PayPal and Thai bank account? Make a PayPal payment for me, and we'll have the money in your Thai bank account within the hour. I have lots of cash, but just no way to send a payment online at the moment. If you can help, please send me a PM, as it'd help more than you think.

My only other avenue at the moment is sending Leo back to Laos, and have him send a wire transfer from his Laos bank account. We\re finally getting along good again though, and are strong again, so I'd very much prefer he doesn't leave right now.

Why not pay the bill using your Canadian bank account?

Because when I called to get my debit card reissued I ended up with a branky bitch on the phone, who said she can't verify me over the phone. She then proceeded to freeze my account, and tell me I need to visit the nearest branch in person in order to have my account unfrozen. That would be fine, except the Pacific fucken Ocean happens to be in the way.

Oh that's the kind of script-reading customer service I get too - except he usually has a Bangladeshi accent, tells me his name is Ryan, and thanks me for calling "the most excellent customer service yes please"

??? I haven't been to this forum for awhile. But isn't Leo a Thai national? Doesn't he have Thai friends/family who can help?

No, he's a Laos citizen, hence why he can't open a bank account -- all the banks require him to have a work permit before opening an account for him. Nobody is his family has anything such as a PayPal account, and I'm not even willing to ask my own mother to put in her credit card details, so definitely not asking Leo's family.

I'm trying my nephews tonight, and hopefully one of them can help. Otherwise, Leo does have a bank account in Laos, so he may just have to go back tomorrow morning to send a wire transfer for me. He doesn't have a debit card for that account though, which was at my instruction. I don't want him to have a card for that account, because then he'll just spend the money.

I don't want him to go back to Laos right now though. After his little stunt, we're finally getting on really good again. I'd prefer we stay together, and keep pushing forward and being strong together.

Am I right in thinking Bitcoin has been hugely devalued in recent times? For someone who works internationally, Matt's payment options seem terribly limited.

A recent pic of Matt has recently appeared elsewhere and I thought I should post it here:

It was Matt who leapt in to defend you and I moved it to the far away holding room and the mods you hate so much allowed Matt to put Gerefan2 in his place so follow whichever road you choose to.

No you didn't. An explanation is not an apology. Hence your still smarting over that and other matters such as the incorrect information you have over Cafe Royal.

What’s the matter with you Arsenal? First you try and wind up Joe, then you try and get him have a go at me. Good for him keeping quiet.

Only last week I had to put you back in your box,in my thread about Emirates, when you attacked SG.about his posting history. In post number 3 no less.

Just do your monitoring...and do it in Private.

Why don’t you just walk into the KK branch of your creditor’s bank and pay the cash into his/her account?

Because the company's bank account is in Uruguay, not Thailand.

They wiped the server last night, so doesn't matter any more anyway.

Crikey mr giggles, I cannot remember the last time a brand new member opened with such a hilariously funny and apt one-liner. I can see we are all in for a roller coaster of belly laughs from you in future posts. I for one cannot wait.

And our two resident comedians from Glasgow, Flanagan & Allen, better think on, look sharp and up their game. Looks like they face some rather stiff competition from mr giggles.

Flanagan and Allen???

Why not not Francie and Josie (who lived up a closie)? Why not the Krankies (eh, we know why not!)? Why not Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon? Burke and Hare? Brown and Blair? Any I've missed?
