  1. Where in Thailand can you get Avon Skin-So-Soft bath oil?
  2. I opened two accounts with Kasikorn Bank, one in Suriwong, and one in the Siam Paragon branch last July. The Siam Paragon branch of Kasikorn has great opening hours. I tried previously and unsuccessfully to open accounts in Bangkok Bank, Siam Commercial Bank, and in two branches of Bank of Ayudhya, but was told I couldn't on a 60 day tourist visa. I was told Kasikorn Bank had one of the most up to date online banking systems, and found it very easy to use. I could access my accounts online within 24 hours of opening my accounts, and there is a very useful and easy to use English language helpline. The Kasikorn accounts have passbooks which you can update using machines both outside and inside some branches. The Visa electron card is also useful for deposits and withdrawals, and yes there was a small fee for the card. I do worry, however, what might happen if the card was lost because it doesn't have my name on it! It comes just with the card number. I was told if an account remains inactive for a year it is closed! So having two accounts allows me to move funds from one account to another thus keeping both accounts open, especially useful for people not resident in Thailand. Also, using K-Cyber banking you can, if you wish, transfer funds to other account holders.
