You say she doesn't have a pc, she don't need one, you can call from your pc with Skype to any telephone in the world at a cheap rate.

feasantplukka, people here who talk about using Skype to call a phone number mean SkypeOut.

If you already have Skype, sign up for SkypeOut on the Skype web site and you will pay only EUR 0.057 to call a landline in Bangkok, EUR 0.106 to a landline in Thailand outside Bangkok, EUR 0.107 to any Thai mobile number, all prices including VAT.

thanks for the advice maestro, already have skype out at home in uk, but dont think I will myself have access to a pc in Sweden, or it might be a bit innconvenient to get to one. really just wanted to use a landline with cheap rate number, come on out there someone must make cheap calls from landlines in sweden

My 60.68THB comes from two seperate sunday newspapers!!

They can't both be wrong

That's the exchange rate you'd get if you bought baht while in the UK. It's always about 10% worse than if you buy in Thailand. Never buy big bunches of dosh in your home country, wait till you get to where you're going. You always get a better exchange rate that way as there are fewer middlemen looking for a profit.

good advice I agree bettter rate in thailand everytime

I want to buy a roll of bubble wrap.

Does anyone know where?

kurgen if ure in pattaya there's a small shop opposite skaew beach hotel off second rd, I bought some there, they sell carrier bags cardboard boxes tape etc.. handy if you want to pack things to take home.

think its a soi dog lol

yes i did iam 37 shes 32 she liked it like they say its good to give

and this time my letter got there many times they are opened buy pepole loking for money then never forwaded seems to happen a lot

never send money inside cards

yes I agree be carefull of what you send, sent bithday cards, christmas cards, etc...

not much succes am afraid, think thai postmen have good job checking post for falang money, maybe better to send an E-card

reading most of these posts I get the feeling that some members think that all newbies are stupid inexperienced fools, ok they give some helpfull advice but i think 1 or 2 should get real are there parteners wives or GF not ex bargirls not all the girls are out to cheat on farang and whats wrong with someone falling for a bargirl theres good and bad in every culture, because they now live in thailand everyone who doesn't is a fool seems to spring to mind.

Hi guys, looking through topics posted I came across a post on cheap calls to UK from mobiles in Thailand, didn't write numbers down, now I carn't find the post, anyone out there any info regarding cheap calls from LOS to uk via mobile

Registerd my sim at carrefour in Pattya last week, at AIS shop second floor, all you need is YOUR SIM phone number and Passport number, Print and sign name I'm with 12 call, easy peasy lemon squeezy

This will cause a lot of problems unforeseen by the government:

1. Sim cards used to implicate others falsely in crimes (along with the scam Wolfie mentions above!)

2. No longer will sim numbers be anonymous- so one will have to be as careful in giving someone one's mobile number as in giving him one's name. And once you give your number to someone else, and they give IT to someone else, all the third parties can determine your name.

I'm soooo sure this will prevent terrorist organizations from anonymizing their phone calls. After all, they seem to have been so poor at keeping their identities from the police so far...

Regarding the sim card registration, last week I registerd my AIS 12 call sim card at the carrefour shopping centre in Pattaya, all I needed to do was fill in a simple form, phone number, passport number, print and sign name,It took 2 minutes both Farang and Thais were signing the form , second floor at the 1 2 call phone shop.

hi humphrey, just seen on GMtv that a taxi driver as stabbed a Brit in Krabi, said the Brit was from Hereford, didnt say whether he was dead or not,

Hi could anyone advise me, I am currently gathering information for applying for a visitors visa for my Thai G/F, I own my home no morgage, can I just use my new council tax bill for proof of ownership or do I need the original deeds, my deeds are held by a solicitor and I feel reluctant to use them, also could anyone advise me on health insurance for my G/F, i.e if it is needed, where to purchase, cost, etc....

Good. I hope its as successful as the crackdown on Loy Krathong fireworks. Or drunk drivers. or.....
