  1. When you need cash, how many times has your ATM been out of order? If there's an internet outage, they'll probably go down. And there's always a charge if out of province, 15 or 20 THB. And who wants to sit in a bank waiting behind people with a clutch of blue books, chanotes, id cards, opening accounts, withdrawing or making deposits? I take out 20k THB at a time. Usually lasts 6-8 weeks or so. But I only use it in markets, massage and a few other places.
  2. I never pay a fee using prompt pay or scan. What are you talking about?
  3. Well, you didn't say from where to where. Correct me if I'm wrong, you transferred AUD from your Ozzie bank into your AUD account with Wise. You then transferred the equivalent of 1.9 million THB AUD into your THB account in a Thai bank, using Wise's exchange rate and their fees. Wise doesn't handle THB. Only Thai banks do.
  4. I hear the faint rustle of tumbleweed as it blows through the empty turnstiles. Oh dear, nobody showed. Exactly 0 tourists made the trip to Toyland for a non event of water chucking. Sorry TAT. This is not a world ranking event.
  5. Did they take down the website? Track down it's owners? Who it's registered to? Where do they get 600 million THB from? Monthly circulation? Flow chart please. Money in/out. Names of twins. Sons of which local person of influence? Gangsters? Mafia? Chinese connections? Pathetic. Nab 3 fall guys and they seem to think it's job done. Released the next day. Carry on lads.
  6. No mention of Tony and his daughter's love affair with the Cambodian gangsters running that poor country. Nor of any contact with the Chinese and Cambodian embassies. No comment? Disgusting!
  7. 22,387 individuals? Didn't they just release 10s of 1000s of petty drug users from prison? Half the point of the decriminalisation of weed. Now they've rounded up a refill it seems. 5 meth pills ok guv? Hey Cholnan, waddya say?
  8. Exactly. The cost to any nation of alcohol related disease, deaths and social mayhem (domestic violence, family breakup, kid's lives destroyed) is almost immeasurable. Same but even worse for yaba. Smack, speed? Hey, nuts I may be. Speed freak I ain't! Get real you idiot politicians. Whose script are you reading from?
  9. Phyops? Tokenly? Oz silver coin? String of garlic? Wooden stake? Holy water?
  10. From where, to where? I didn't think you could transfer THB using Wise. Have to use Dee. You mean 1.9 m in exchange value? THB to THB is simple. Just use your bank(s).
  11. What about the rest of his posts? Any idea what he's on about?
  12. “Today, our lawn may not be green, but we have fertiliser and a lawn mower. If we all help out, our lawn will turn green. This is our home, we must overcome our bitter past,” said Srettha. This lawn is dead. It is no more. It has passed on. It's gone to lawn heaven. What you see here is a fake lawn. Artificial lawn. No mowing required. And no fertiliser. And no rake off.
  13. What a ham. And what's he doing getting involved in political debate around "his party's future"? Isn't this expressly proscribed in his case? Where's the NACC? Ban him and his party. Thai Rak Thai in the Thai language is only a few letters off Thai Trick Thai. Enough said.
  14. I don't understand your last 2 posts. Are they in reference to Wise? What is CS?
  15. This happened to me. It's just Wise updating their KYC. A pain, but nothing to worry about. It's possible they have to do it every x years.
  16. Bangchak's website has a lot of info. Current prices and historical. 91 was 32.98 on Jan 4th. Today, 38.48. So 5.5 THB rise. 16.5% rise. https://www.bangchak.co.th/en/oilprice/historical
  17. The best whoever it was commented on my post, can come up with is a sad emoji. How pathetic is that? Can't argue or won't argue? Illiterate maybe? Latest Kremlin briefing not arrived yet?
  18. Stealing from the Russians? Only Putin and his gang do that. It's not just the US that has come up with the idea of making Russia pay for their wilful destruction of Ukrainian infrastructure, and the poisoning of millions of hectares of agricultural land. The EU is also in support of this, and I'm sure Japan and all the other Western allies are in full agreement. Western investments in Russia were seized by the Kremlin and have probably been written off a long time ago. Now, we have $300 billion of their overseas holdings. That's like a down payment. The rest can come later.
  19. I don't think so. To burn your bridges means to eliminate any means of retreat. Nothing to do with britches.
  20. The debate is more to do with using the $300 billion to rebuild Ukraine. And quite rightly.
  21. If your gold's in a Swiss vault, come WWIII, chances are Putin's going to blow it up and empty it. It's the only way he can keep the Russian kleptonomy alive. Get out of gold!
  22. No disrespect, but a no brainer in other words. In order to make the deposit, insert ATM card, enter PIN, select from menu, forget what the options are but ultimately deposit cash maybe, drawer opens, deposit money without kinks or folds, proceed.
  23. See here for a full explanation of the digits on a Thai id card: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_identity_card But I doubt the bank's software is going to do a look up. Accessing the government's database on citizen's info looking for a match would surely not be allowed. (Cue the rabid globalist conspiracy theoreticians .....)
  24. Not so sure. A week ago he cleaned my itchy ears and charged me 900 THB. A week later, itchy as hell and crusty skin.
