  1. They most certainly go to Korat from and to Pattaya as that bus I will take this coming Tuesday. Their end stop is Rayong. [email protected] Their phone number is 1624 and they have I believe English speakers Booking is very simple over the phone, they send you a link to your phone via SMS then you click on it, fill in the captcha, it shows a QR code which you scan with your phone and pay via Mobile Banking. After payment, you click the same link in the sms and there is your ticket, make screen captures of it and that when you board the bus show it to the attendant. Ps: Bring warm clothes as NCA loves to set the aircon in their buses rather cold ;😉
  2. I understand but he clearly is confused which account to use, so the leniency would apply that he could still post on his 27ish post account in case of problems
  3. May I ask for some leniency please @CharlieH ? He is 80 so let it be just in case he has other problems with his account?
  4. Thanks @Ralf001 for checking as I don't use that function It becomes stranger every minute. Sorry to say
  5. Why didn't you say that before? You should contact support and ask why your 1000 posts have been deleted because from your profile there are only 27 posts visible. Do you by any chance use any other account then this one?
  6. @mason 45 to prevent these kinds of deletions, please bookmark those pages in your browser from now on, as that will not be depended on forum software upgrades
  7. So what that I think it could mean is that because of the upgrade all followed content has been erased for everyone and NOT because your downgrade from Gold to apprentice member, but that said...... As I don't use that function, I hope again that @CharlieH or another member who uses that "Followed Content" which is available under "Clicking your Username in the upper left corner and then scrolling down" if they see content from before the upgrade and can confirm this.
  8. I am a bit confused sorry, but how does resetting you from being a gold member to an apprentice member causes to lose data. For my clarification where did you store this data? Or how did you access it?
  9. I haven't changed anything in my profile (since the new software) so i must have set that previously but I think that solves @still kicking problem. Well done @KhunLA
  10. If you ask me, but I am just guessing here, that the new software doesn't take into account the years you are a member but how many posts you got. I could be wrong of course, so let's wait what @CharlieH or another Admin says about it.
  11. Does pressing Control and DOWN ARROW help? Although that sends you all the way down the screen
  12. I have all Bob Dylan albums so yes I can say I have listened to that song before, but what is your point asking me that, as the topic is about changes to the forum software and not general music knowledge If you zoom out completely the pictures are obscenely big compared to the text (this is a screenshot when I zoom out completely)
  13. Why are those images so big? Yes I can zoom out, but my eye sight is not as it used to be Ps: Not running an ad-blocker
  14. Another example of Arbitrariness by the different IO's in the country. Our IO also required the pictures on the bed when applying for the Marriage extension. But that said, it's not your local IO that dictates the documents for the Marriage extension as it's NOT a local IO decision, but the documents gets send to the Regional HQ and there they decide it if you are granted an extension or not, and that is why (AFAIK) you have the under consideration period for Marriage extensions.
  15. No Cash Money? Where do you see that? 3.3 - that is the combo of money in the bank and monthly transfer, afaik you can combine those two but must total to be (at least) 800.000 THB. @DrJack54 knows more about this. (In the picture it states under 3.3 that the documents that must be handed over to immigration has to follow the guidelines under 3.1 and 3.2, for example statement 1 year. *3.1*) Photo of residence, that is necessary for Marriage, but apparently this IO wants it for Retirement as well
  16. I think you might be confusing with the 1 year statement. Bangkok bank can issue up to a 6 month statement on the same day you get the bank letter. Only for the 1 year statement you have to wait 1 week to get it from Bangkok Bank as it (I assume) comes from the Head Office) When I did my recent extension I was at Bangkok Bank at 10:30am (time they open) got the bank letter and the 6th month statement, and was before 12pm at Immigration and left immigration with my new extension at around 1pm. IO only wanted the Bank Letter and not the 6 month statement. I think that was because I am using a Fixed Deposit account and not a savings account.
  17. That is another thing that is different for each IO again, our IO wants the Bank Letter dated THE DAY you go to Immigration, the bank letter a day early is unfortunately NOT accepted. Deposit is also required because they want to see some movement on that day.
  18. Before getting the bank letter and don't, when you withdraw, that you DON'T DIP UNDER THE 800.000 THB
  19. I just completed this quiz. My Score 100/100 My Time 47 seconds  
  20. And that your WIFE must be present to sign some forms when you do the switch from Marriage -> Retirement. (Depending on IO of course)
  21. Buriram IO as well Only for Marriage extension is that necessary, for Retirement they don't ask it
  22. I just completed this quiz. My Score 20/100 My Time 46 seconds  
  23. Bangkok Bank did previously for my Savings account added pages as well if it was full and the new bank book then had only one line printed with the balance as of that date, but they did not do that for my Fixed Deposit account. My Fixed Deposit Book was full and they made copies from my passport, latest extension of stay and they also shoved a piece of paper under my nose which stated - My address - My Phone Number - Passport Number - Nationality etc etc (but not visa status) And I had to sign it to certify it had the correct information on it.
