  1. Not much help if you have a Kasikorn account, but i agree Bangkok Bank is the better option
  2. Best to avoid the immigration lottery so get Kasikorn to produce a letter of International transfers
  3. apparently yes based on reports I've read, but depends on branch
  4. Kasikorn is meant to produce a letter showing the International transfers
  5. No Kasikorn doesn't work the same way, Kasikorn should still settle almost instantly, Wise has agreed with Kasikorn that Wise transfers will be treated as International, the code used should signify to Kasikorn that it's International except not all branches understand
  6. Probably in your head only, same with bicycles, a friend recently swapped from 1500 baht "trendy" tyre to 500 baht continental, no performance difference, just less trendy
  7. yeah let's include fake wives too
  8. You are getting confused with high carb with excessive carbs, I'm talking high carb low fat, not excessive carbs and not junk. Plenty online about it, Asians were slim for generations on rice carbs, not OMAD, now with western diet they are getting fat. OMAD people just seem to binge, sounds like that's what you do, eating for hours
  9. The key is 5.5M compensation to victims families, back in farangland we'd normally get zero compensation, but defendant would get prison but that doesn't pay the bills
  10. If you use Kasikorn Bank it should still show as International whether you use the correct reason or not
  11. i rarely go to bars, i do go to agogos once every fortnight or so. i meet friends for coffee, try Benjamit next time you come, many people meet there, the best coffee places are out of town
  12. i haven't got a budget as such but 50k is easy enough, if you have your own condo avoiding rent helps. Guys with wives and fake girlfriends would be paying far more on wages and buying food etc dragging them round everywhere
  13. Sounds like you think Pattaya is just Buakhao, 2nd road, beach road etc, many make the same mistake, sit in bars and say they don't like Pattaya
  14. Dregs are everywhere
  15. The 800k goes in then the letter is printed then 800k goes out, all within the same day probably hour. Don't worry about it as long as you've chosen a recommended agent with an office and long established
  16. It depends, works best with Bangkok Bank, 2nd best Kasikorn, very very important you select the correct reason for transfer, "long term stay", transfer a small test amount first
  17. but we're talking about small bikes around town not doing laps on a track although some farang do ride recklessly
  18. Yeah keep dreaming 555
  19. Yes of course over or under inflated tyres are very noticeable but you were referring to Pirelli, Michelin etc, in what ways is handling different?
  20. In what way is the handling different? in most cases it's in peoples minds only
  21. Yep, effect of tyre pressure is huge, too high and you almost feel on ice which is kinda what op was describing, maybe he just had correct tyre pressure this time. The tyres I've had in Thailand have been fine, noticed no difference, first ones circ 700 each, second ones 500 each
  22. I didn't go for 10 years as i was warned they were always trying to scam you so i left it for 10 years and guess what some classic scams were tried straight out of a book. Anyway, was ok, enjoyed it but not enough to go back. The farang dregs in PP were a bit shocking to me at the time
  23. probably heading to bottom Pratumnak \2nd road where all the Indians and their freelancers hangout
