  1. Try to find a good lawyer ASAP.

    Forget about the cops.

    What should this be good for? Go to the police, perhaps tourist cops, that speak english and explain the situation. They should be able to advise on what to do. You may also notify DLT and provide them with copies of the paperwork. Let them give you some proof of your report. If nothing else happens, you can show later that you are no longer in possession of the the car.

  2. There may be another option, again, works for MEA. I get one of my electricity bills by SMS, has the bill number, amount and due date. You can pay by online banking. Not sure if they could do this in CNX PEA.

  3. You guys are funny. Try to get an ambulance out from the BKK or any of the other "golden watertap" hospitals around noon or at Saturdays to the outskirts, because they have whatever service and insurance coverage, and in the meantime you are dead.

    I'd not mind to end up on a pickup and be driven to the local vet, if they could keep me alive, rather than following a lot of BS posted here.

    The number is 1669 or if you have no other choice, dial 112, that's the number every mobile allows to dial, even without SIM.

  4. The general emergency hotline is 199, 112 should also work worldwide on a mobile phone. Your best bet however in a medical emergency is 1669. You can find the number on almost all ambulances if you open your eyes. It's a central dispatch hotline that will channel your call to all the rescue vehicles, ambulances, body snatchers and scavengers in your area.

    As this is a commission based (private) business, first come, first served, they will rush to you like killer bees and arrive usually in less than 5...10 mins. You could of course also wait for any hiso ambulance from a hospital with golden water taps, your insurance pays for that, but perhaps you drop dead in the hour they need to reach and find you.

    Worst advise is probably to call the German Rentner Club aka DHV in Pattaya to get you emergency medical services in Sansai.

  5. 50baht top up? Good grief. Welcome to the Farang poverty forum.

    You probably missed the point. It's about validity, not balance. If one wants to top up remotely/from abroad, thus through online banking (to not lose the number) the cheapest option for AIS is 12 x 50B which leads to 365 days of validity. Alternatively a one time topup of equal 600B will give you something like 3 months, depending on promotion, could also be less.

    TRUE offers a validity extension using the existing balance that cost 3B per month or 36B for a whole year and may be the better option. The SIM/number could survive almost 3 years with a single topup of 100B before leaving Thailand and yearly extension of validity before expiry.

  6. Koolpunt 12 is the one at the 121 near Saraphi, or? That's on an open desert and certainly not worth 25k for a square wah or 4 sqm for the land alone. Someone has high hopes for the next 25 years perhaps :D.

  7. The lowest you can do online is 50B, this adds 30 days. As I wrote you can do this 12 times to come to a one year validity. That's the cheapest option as higher topup amounts do not add validity progressively. Or just get a TRUE SIM and pay 36B for a whole year.

  8. K Bank works with MEA in Bangkok, you don't even need the bill, just the account number. The system is linked to the MEA and they have the current balance automatically. But I don't think this works with the provincial authorities (PEA).

  9. That happens if your remaining validity is still close to a year and you top up. It will add the new validity on top of the previous one. So if you had let's say 9 months left and you top up adding another 90 days you have a full year again. But that depends on your promotion.

  10. AIS prepaid lasts 12 months from last top up.

    No, it doesn't. For AIS a top up of 50B adds validity of one month up to a maximum of 12 months. That is if you top up 12 x 50B separately. Higher amounts add I think up to 90 days maximum, but this have to check for a particular promotion.

    With TRUE there is a specific code where you can use a small amount of money to extend the validity. 3B give you 30 days, also up to 365 days maximum. I think it was *9344. As TRUE has the better network I'd just go for the latter.
