  1. Thank you!!!
  2. Approximately 5 ½ feet long, this one climbed over our wall from the khlong. It caught a large frog before I ran it off. After dark it had returned and found the frog again before running off. What is this snake? Poisonous?
  3. Thank you.....
  4. Anyone have suggestions where to park at or near the new US Consulate at Super Highway? Thank you for your tips…….
  5. Medicare Part A is free for those who qualify. Most do qualify but not everyone does, and then you have to pay for it. Suggest you do a little research to be sure you don’t have to pay. Here’s some info: https://www.healthline.com/health/medicare/is-medicare-part-a-free#part-a-costs
  6. You should be able to update your banking during the interview. For depositing in a bank OUTSIDE THE U.S., they only need: Name & Address of Bank (have the tele# at hand) Bank Account Number Swift Code Type of Account As to Medicare Part A, being overseas they should ASK you if you want to enroll. If you don't want to enroll, and if the interviewer doesn't ask, then you need to inform the interviewer.
  7. The interviewer didn't ask anything other than what I supplied on the application to begin benefits. You're overthinking....don't worry......
  8. I assume you have applied for benefits. The call is principally to verbally verify the information you provided in your benefit application. I recall my call took about 20 minutes. And the call came in past the appointment time so I suggest you change your dental appt as you do not want to miss or re-schedule this important call....
  9. My pink card and yellow book has Thai script for my name. That was how it was issued by Thai authorities. The Bangkok Bank rep did not state that was the reason my pink card was not acceptable. I will ask the bank manager the next time I go there
  10. Yes my name on my bank account is in English. But I do not understand why a translation of my name on my pink card from English to Thai would be a problem, especially as it has my photo on it...have you had such an experience? Thank you.
  11. I use the bank's TT exchange rate from the same date as the bank balance was that I report. Never had a problem with this.
  12. Read my post from last Wed which explains...the bank seems to demand TWO pieces of documentation that matches your home address to the address the bank has for the account. It's not a firm requirement that the documents have your photo. A passport does not have your Thai or any other address (U.S. PP).
  13. It has the address as I posted 5 days ago.......
  14. I use Apple products and don't have that constraint...the OP didn't mention what OS or hardware he's having issues with
  15. Don't have to use Google play. Just reset your region to be Thailand, go back and dl Shopee, then restore the region you had previously setup
