    Were there not more payment options available under the 980 baht option?

    Only PayPal, which I don't have/ won't use, or a credit card, again don't have, won't use.
    Was much simpler previously, they sent out a form, I printed it, took it to local Big C / Lotus / lots of other retailers, they scanned the code, I paid, and beIN was up and running when I got home.

  2. It seems that in order to use a Kasikorn Debit Card, one has to register it, via a Kasikorn ATM machine.They didn't tell us this when we first got one, many years ago! It takes 24 hours to register, before one can use the card, as a debit crd and buy things, so I'll see what happens this afternoon, when the 24 hours finishes. Never had this problem before with UK debit cards, had one for around 40 years, over there!

  3. Previously downloaded a form, went to local Big C or Lotus's, paid cash there, got a receipt, and system was live when I got home. Worked great, so of course they had to change things.
    Now can only pay with a Debit or Credit card, tried several times with both myKasikorn Debit card, and Thai wife's card, keeps getting refused by the Bank. Of course today the Banks are closed, (someone at beIN really needs to give their head a shake). Anyone have any advice?
    The fee is only 950 Baht the funds in the Bank are way in excess of that.

    Dr Jack54 & Lopburi3.

    Thank you for explicit advice.

    I shall apply for a 60 day extension to visit wife.

    Then go for extension based on marriage.

     

    Not correct. I had a joint account with my wife for my extensions based on retirement a few times. The 800k must be minimum 1.6M.

    You do realise that Thai Banks only guarantee one million Baht, will be covered if they fail? (Which happened in the 1990s).

    It was sixteen (UK) pounds an ounce back in 1973. Mostly hash (Morrocan) but the occasional Afghani Black and once in a while a Thai Stick. Fifty years ago now. And they say cannabis is bad for your memory!

     

    It was sixteen pounds an ounce...oops sorry forgot I just said that.

    You were over charged, mate. I paid 12 pounds an ounce in 73. Red Leb, Acapulco Gold, <deleted> Black, Thai Stick, various Jamaican strains, available from our local "ethnic" dealer! Used to chop it up into 18 "quid deals". Happy daze...
