    Could you please give me the address of the agent you are quoting (for future Reference) i'm 85 ands it's getting increasingly difficult to go the personal route, i take it agents won't do marriage extentions on account you have to be present in person, is this correct? i would be using Jomtien I/O

    If you are located on the Dark Side you might try <http://www.visakhaotalo.com/en/Home/Index> and talk to Thanita.

    I have used them for a few years with no problems.

  2. As per the bank's response:

     

    'Customers can also choose to enable or disable online usage functions through the ttb touch app by going to Settings >> Debit Card Management >> Set Spending Limits and Card Usage >> Authorization >> Select Disable Online Purchase Authorization.'

     

    Online purchase authorization should only be enabled when about to make an online purchase and should then be immediately disabled again.  I had this exact problem with my TTB debit card, some time ago.  Someone had managed to get hold of my card number and security code and had made an unauthorized purchase for 32 Baht.  I still have no idea how this happened but TTB advise me whenever my account is accessed so I was able to immediately block the card.  They issued me with a new card and refunded the 32 Baht.

     

    The new card is only enabled for online purchases when I actually use it for that purpose.

    One time I had a problem with them because my signature changed when getting a new bank book. 

    Interestingly a recent experience where my signature changed again, not a word from them.

    Maybe after a certain age they just give up, ha ha. 

    As I don't write checks and haven't signed a contract for years, my signature varies wildly pretty much every time I do it. 

     

    I can relate to the signature problem.  I had some difficulty with TTB, a while ago, when getting a new pass book, because my signature had changed.  In my case I have quite serious arthritis and I find it tricky to even hold a pen, let alone make reproducible signatures.  Hilariously, they let me continue trying until I managed to get a match with the signature that they had on file that they were satisfied with.

    Somewhere on your pass book there will be an image of your signature that is only visible under UV light.  A 'black light' pen will reveal it - and you can then practice until you can reproduce it satisfactorily.

    The problem will be receiving the voting form from your home constituency and then getting it back to them in time to count.  A proxy would get round that, but do you trust your proxy to vote the way you want?

    Yes, the snail mail method of sending out voting papers can be a considerable problem.  I received my Brexit voting paper just one day before the deadline - not long enough to return it, even by EMS.  

    A proxy would work - if you have one that you can trust.

    Just open "view notifications" in a new tab, then close the new tab. Done and dusted. 

    That doesn't seem to work for me.  Maybe Browser dependent?  I use Brave.

     

    Anyway, I would like to see the 'clear notifications' and 'return to top' options restored.

  6. There are two shops that I know of on Threpprasit  Rd., corner of Soi 8.

     

    SV Bike Shop - bought my Trek from there but quite  long time ago.

    Numchai Bike Shop

     

    Reviews on Google seem to indicate that Numchai is friendlier and possibly cheaper.

     

    There are other bike shops dotted around town.  Pull up Google Maps for locations.

    Wanted to get some photos and video of Jomtien beach when the tide is right out, went past today about an hour ago and there was only about 4 or 5m of beach (opposite Cafe Amazon half way down beach road) 

     

    was over nearer to Na Jomtien last Friday and there was 40m-60m of beach.  Does anyone know when there’ll be loads more beach to see, or is the beach a lot larger down Na Jomtien/Soi 19 anyway?

    Tonight’s maintenance is done. I need your feedback please!

     

    Any improvement in page load speed etc?

    is the forum loading faster now?

     

    We will continue doing nightly adjustments as I still think some page load could be improved!

     

    Feel free to post feedback! 🙏

     

     

     

    We are still missing the 'return to top of page' arrow.

    Also, still no way to delete notifications.

     

    Overall speed seem to be OK at the moment.
