  1. Source from a fellow farang if possible, a farang/car you know would be even better, i would'nt trust a Thai second hand dealer.
  2. ''Use it or lose it" is my experience. Having previously had a UK credit card account closed by the provider due to lack of use despite being in credit !!! i now use my CC a couple of times a year here in Thailand. Prior to use i inform them online of my intended travel to Thailand despite the fact that i live here, that ensures they don't decline the transaction. I have no intention of informing them that i live in Thailand and thus giving them the opportunity to close the account. I use a UK address that i used to own but is now owned by my son. My new cards are sent to my son's address in the UK and he sends to me by secure post.
  3. IO can and do have their own local rules regarding the requirements. I have never been asked in 15 years for a copy of my Thai wifes passport just her ID card copy and her blue house book copy. Good luck
  4. I think where you live in Thailand also plays a big part in the availability of competent workers. Also IME Thai workers are very transient people and the guy you've always used has just moved on somewhere else so the search continues.
  5. Yes indeed, i find asking my local Homepro for a recco usually provides a competent local.
  6. That is correct, i did'nt actually do mine my son did but originally he did for 10 days and then became aware i could do for 7 days because i was fully vaccinated and travelling from the UK. AQ not Sandbox.
  7. Are you sure about that ? I've just had 7 days approved.
  8. Yes indeed i was in Thailand before travelling to the UK. Unfortunately i did'nt get my Thai Pass approved in time as there was a problem with my vaccine certificate, god knows what as there was no explanation just rejection !!!
  9. Guys this requirement of 21 days in the UK prior to travel/arrival in Thailand - They mention permanent residency as a way of getting round this requirement, now is my Non O visa with a retirement extension classed as permanent residency. I arrived in the UK on 15th Dec and have a return flight on 2nd Jan so only 18 days. Thanks for any help.
  10. My RE renewal is due on 22/1/22 but i maybe short on time getting all the requirements together as i'm currently in the UK. I'm planning on coming back on 3/1/22 but may have to do the 10 day quarantine which could leave me short on time to get the requirements together. I do the 65K monthly income method through Bangkok Bank. Is a 30 day extension permitted in my case ? Thanks in anticipation
  11. I'm now on my third item in the last 3 months which is NOT what i ordered <deleted>........
  12. I'll say it again........ Private hospitals = Bill padding thieves
  13. Totally irrelevant, the court is considering the offence in question nothing to do with previous offences. One of the reasons given is to "prevent further offences being committed whilst he is on bail"
  14. I can assure you that if this happened in the UK the alleged perpetrator/offender would NEVER be given bail and one of the reasons given in court would be to prevent further offences taking place. But things are different here in Thailand.
  15. I had the same issue as you having not left the country since 2010 and i also had a new passport and number since that date. I got my friendly IO lady to update the IO computer records/system held for me. I have'nt had a problem since.
  16. I have exactly the same problem with Dtac. Not only that problem but when dialling *101# to check my balance its not working anymore and just shows the amount from when i last topped the credit up. Strange things are happening and i'm off to a Dtac office today to sort it out otherwise i'm going to change provider.
  17. I've never had it before and i do 2/3 transfers per month and have done for getting on 2 years.
  18. Yes indeed, thats why i never do any transfer that is for my monthly income retirement extension until at the earliest the 1st of any given month. Its high time that immigration allowed transfers at any time as long as you transfer 12 amounts of a minimum 65K for RE's per year. But of course that would require some thinking on behalf of IO's lol
