  1. My Sky TV only completely lost the signal once Stoneyboy, when The Boro got to the FA Cup Final, but the rain on Teesside was the worst I can ever remember that day! Seem to remember it went off quite a lot when it snowed, though.

    My CTH reception seems to vary, The Australian Network channel seems to go off quite a lot even in just heavy cloud, but it's also been completely OK when it rained - what's that about ?? :)

  2. I'm confused, (which admittedly happens a lot). Are we now back on the "normal" competition of posting our scores with "Bankers" denoted by a "B" next to the score, and forgetting all about this prediction stuff ?

    May I offer a vote of solidarity, and thanks to Mr Bojangles, who gives up his free time to run this competition for our benefit ? I am confident that everything is above board, and feel it is churlish to criticise.

  3. We didn't have any of the problems Santisuk had. We're in Phetchabun, the installer was supposed to come Monday, but phoned Sunday and asked if he could do the satellite install a day early. Really professional job, all done in a little under 2 hours.

    CTH seems to have better quality HD picture than True Visions, and so far we're very pleased with CTH. Price same as paid by Stoneyboy, included fitting a new dish ( I'd read on here of some companies using the True dish, but this company didn't). 4300 Baht total price, includes the first months rental payment of 899 Baht.

    Very satisfied customer so far, with the added bonus no more True Visions - they have messed us around something awful, especially as we were customers for over 11 years, glad to be rid of them.

  4. Had mine installed today, I can echo Stoneyboy's comments', very professional job, again I paid 4300, and I am paying monthly.

    The picture on CTH seems a lot better than that on TrueVisions to me, can't wait to dump True, their service to me has been awful.

    Thanks again to Stoneyboy for the information on the shop, and all help given. :)

  5. What road is the Tesco Lotus Extra on, Stoneyboy ?
    Is it anywhere near the prison ? (Seem to recall there is a Tesco near there, is it that one ?
    I've got a niece lives there, (Phitsanulok not the prison lol), who visits Phetchabun regularly, perhaps I can persuade her to bring me some shopping. :)

  6. I'm currently with Nationwide. I have tried to transfer some money from a fixed term account, which has matured, into a new fixed term account, but I am informed that because I live in Thailand, I cannot do this, despite having done this for several years previously.

    Are there other UK Banks that allow account holders to live in Thailand ? I remember reading about Norwich & Peterborough on here, previously, but I can't see anything about them now.

    I prefer internet banking if possible. I'm looking to invest in a fixed term account, for a higher interest rate.

    Any help appreciated, thank you.

  7. I have to have a medical check up at St Louis Hospital, next week, and am planning on going to Pattaya for a few days afterwards. Which is the nearest bus station to this hospital, is it Ekamai or Mortchit ?

    Tried looking on a map but wasn't very clear.

    Thanks for advice & replies.
