The same way he knew the Thai woman with him was his wife was his wife.

I guess you are sending to a Kasikorn bank account. For me and other users who have commented here, anything over $1000 to Bangkok Bangkok, takes 24-48 hours.

Yes it's possible that if he had Kasikorn, it would be instant.

Anything over 1000 USD has never been instant for me to Bangkok Bank, next day usually as the other user said. If your friend needs more instantly, they can send it in multiple transfers of 1000 or equivalent and the fees are only a few dollars more that way.

Instant as long as I don't send over $1000 USD.

Yes, Pattaya.

Yes it has happened to me a few times at 7-11s that are almost always busy with many tourists. Now I stare at the screen as they are scanning and if paying in cash, check my change before leaving and also the receipt. Never happened at a 7-11 outside tourist areas though and they are always very friendly and helpful there.

You don't know me but It suits this farang. Boiling food in soup, not just water. But I agree, the grill places like Sukishi or AKA are much better.

Yeah scan to pay with QR should work with almost all drivers. You should consider Line Man as well if it has the food options you want, they have a decent english option now. They have no issue accepting cash or QR and we order food with them almost daily. Never have to wait 30mins to an hour for a rider to accept an order like often happened to me with Grab when I used it.

First stop, Soi 6.

It should be going to the staff. That's what I assume and I don't tip on top of the 10% or 17% when it's charged. If some staff don't receive it, that's their problem. If the 10% service isn't clearly displayed somewhere, you don't legally have to pay it apparently but it's not really worth causing a fuss over 90 baht.

COVID is over, find something else to obsess about.

It depends how she funded the transfer but that sounds right for that amount, yes. https://wise.com/gb/pricing/send-money?sourceAmount=3000&sourceCcy=GBP&targetCcy=THB

Yes.

Sounds good. Problem solved, lesson learned. Studio 7 is not for you. Buying or booking direct is always the best way anyway when it's an option.

Exactly. They don't really care because their profits on the actual phones are minimal. The majority of their profits is from selling cases, accessories etc.. that they want people pick up along with the new phone.

If you're so worried, let him set it up to the wifi stage and then when you get home, do a factory reset and set it up again yourself. The guy was just doing his job as he was told to. They have a paper with a checklist they need to go through before giving you the phone.

Yup, the podophyllin paint is what most doctors here will prescribe if it's one or two smallish warts in the genital area. Use every other day for 3 days a week and the wart(s) will turn black and fall off. Removing them yourself with nail clippers or similar will make you bleed, leave you open to infection and just cause more to pop up. And you're only removing the surface part when you do that as the warts have very long roots.

$0.69 for the first 50g. https://www.travelchinaguide.com/essential/postal-service/rate.htm

Yeah it's new. They don't want cheap Chinese goods competing with local Thai goods so their solution is to tax it.

Yes it happened to me the other day and it came about 24 hours after Wise said it would be in my bank. If you look at your receipt, you'll probably see Bangkok Bank as the Banking Partner for that transaction. When the banking partner is Kasikorn, it always seems to arrive instantly.

Re-entry permit is for your visa and has nothing to do with 90 day reports which is when you need to report in after you have been 90 continuous days in the country.

You don't consider that immigration has access to all your entries/exits on their computer? Along with a ton of other information.

That's the fine for an overstay of his visa which has nothing to do with 90 day reports. You can't be fined that much and can't get blacklisted for not doing your 90 day report.
