Well its your home Bob and your entired to walk around B##lock naked , i do however recommend possibly wearing a posing pouch when answering the door to strangers like the one in the photo available from Lazada

I have probably had about 8 or 9 over the past 23 years i have lived here and never once been charged for a Certificate of Residence , i do however here many stories of people being asked to pay 200 to 300 baht .

Just say , " Do you work bar " and take it from there

Also if its in Phuket Also if its in Phuket, they will definitely check if you have gone below 800,000 during the first 3 months after. They insist on providing them with a full 12 month bank statement that must start from the date you first got the extension, so they can check thoroughly if you ever went below the 800,000 during the 3 months of course havent gone below 400,000 during the next 7 months.

I only get called " Handsome Man " in low season from May until October the rest of the year the ladies just completely ignore me

Sounds like a couple of Piss Heads Pissing around

As long as its not a vibrator you will be ok

That is certainly not correct , i have been buying True yearly sims for since 2019 and they are super fast speed's. The ones i buy come with free calls to all networks and the last one i bought was in June 2023 for 1199 , so i got Internet at tge fastest speed of up to 1000 mbps and free calls to all networks that cut off off after 30 minutes then have to redial. They have saved me a lot of money as before i used tobe paying about 1000 baht a month just in phone calls .

That is a Mai Thai Dee account , instant access account not fixed term

I think that is quite correct , i live in Patong , Phuket , and the foreign quotas are always full due to the fact that there are not that many Condominiums buildings that have a Condo licence that allow the 49% Foreigner / 51% Thai ownership rule.

There always worth 35% to 40% more because they can be sold to a foreigner who can register the unit in his own name were as a Thai freehold unit can only be registered into a Thai name or Thai company

Correct

If the sellers visa has expired by more than 30 days then yes its a big problem , i had the same issue when i purchased my ex neighbors car , I had the two signed forms {POA and Transfer forms }, copy of signed visa and signed passport and the blue book , but the visa had expired , the transport office only gave me one option , to get my neighbor to return to Thailand , they just said after several attempts impossible to transfer.

I think that is your best option in your situation , next year (April 2025) perhaps apply for your 12 month extension as early as possible to see how it goes , In Phuket i always apply 45 days before , not sure if Bangkok is 45 days or 30 days , but i hope your 2025 extension goes through doing on your own.I myself thought about using an agent recently over the last 2 or 3 years (16,000} , then sending my 800,000 back to the UK and get 5% interest on it in a UK bank (40,000). Now , though i have started instead transferring 65,000 internationally through Wise to my Bangkok bank , when i renew my extension next February , i will do on the income method , then when everything is complete , i will transfer out my 800,000 and put it in a UK fixed interest account , rather than have it sat earning 1.0% in a Krungsri Mai Thai Dee account (8000 - 15% tax , 6,800 per year)

As Del Boy would say " What a Plonker "

Yes a lot , i got two tickets in Chumphon and one in Lampang

Lol , but this poor bloke didnt even get his leg over, he could have just gone to a local massage parlor for a decent shag 3 times a week using the interest on his 65 million

Well , you definitely would not get away with that at Phuket immigration , in January when i did my 18th extension based on retirement, they wanted to scrutinise a 12 month bank statement that hsd to start on the very day i did my previous extension, which was 22 January 2023 , to absolutely make sure i had not gone below 800,000 for 3 months

I am doing the same thing switching from.the 800k to the 65k monthly. I renewed my recent extension in Mid January as my visa expired on March 1st. I strated sending 65k via Wise on 3 January I checked with the immigration officers in Phuket , they were very helpful and told me everything will be ok next year but to make sure i dont go below the 800,000 for a full 3 months from March 1st 2024. They informed me they will still require a 12 month bank statement next year showing i did not go below the 800k and another 12 month bank statement showing the 12 International 65k bank transfes . I use different banks , Krungsri for the 800k deposit and Bangkok bank for 65k transfers. They did confirm that after the 3 months is up from March 1st to June 1st , i can use the full 800k to spend ot transfer out if i want to .

I believe he is called Centaur

I too have been through 4 or 5 toasters each one lasing about 12 to 18 months , now i have a Tefal one which seems to be better , bought on Lazada for about 750

I dont believe they were Ladyboys has there is No "Hard Evidence "

Me to , i dont understand also , I dont know if your TCL unit is the same as mine . On mine once i press the Dry mode it automatically sets the unit to 23c and the fan speed to 3 , which is locked at these settings unlike the other modes were the temperature and fan speeds can be adjusted. 23c is as you mentioned far to cold , although it does remove the humidity. I am now wondering if my unit as a fault were in Dry mode the temperature settings cant be adjusted ?.

I bought a new A/C about 6 months ago , its TCL brand 18.000 btu , it wasnt expensive from laxada around 11,500 but i am very impressed with it . It dies have a Dry mode , so after reading your story i tied it for the first time just to see what it actually does , normally i use the Auto mode on 27c. Anyway , i put it on Dry mode today and in that mode the temperature on the A/C sets itself to 23c and cant be adjusted manually. It quickly cooled my room to 23c and dropped the humidity down to 50%. In Auto mode set at 27c the humidity level was 78% . This is in Phuket by the way , were the humidity level is very uncomfortable at the moment , which i personally find difficult to live with in March and April .
