  1. yeah there are exceptions like publicly quoted companies, most people haven't a clue about that, they were just sold one on the back of a pretty thai sales girl
  2. 1) Bad drivers\riders including farang 2) Barflies who want to play trumps 3) Loud talkers 4) Indians jaywalking 5) Unsavoury farang
  3. This only applies to Bangkok Bank but with Wise you must say reason for transfer "long term stay" or buying a property" for it to show as International. There have been reports of this still not working so test it, if it fails maybe transfer from UK bank to Bangkok Bank for that month
  4. Presumably a bit of discussion goes on so there's cover. Most shops have too many ladies so they probably like it when 1 or more are away
  5. Strange, op also noticed the lower rents
  6. You can get a residence certificate with a hotel bill, you make it sound dramatic
  7. A massage\bar fine is normal if someone takes the lady out the shop, if someone had to go home etc owner shouldn't charge, sometimes lady may try and get a gullible farang ATM to pay it. In massage shops 50\50 seems normal in Pattaya and yes majority don't pay staff just for turning up, they can't not enough customers
  8. it's off Kasetsin, a bitch of an area to get to, you'll need a motorbike or taxis. I live Pratumnak not far away but id6 avoid Kasetsin, condos are fine but just out the way, rents probably lower for the same reason
  9. a lot of unnecessary questions for just a yellow book
  10. Probably same everywhere, it's not something i overly worry about, i doubt our cause of death will be chemicals on vegetables
  11. there's no Reset button, you mean Set presumably, I'll do it tomorrow
  12. i can change the km part, but the reset I'm not sure on yet, i think it's as follows: ignition off keep Set pressed turn ignition on keep Set pressed Oil indicator should disappear is that it?
  13. This was meant to be a 45 floor condo finished around 3 years ago, on Pratumnak Hill, hasn't left the ground yet, showroom still open, but many people try to take company to court but no assets left Makes me wonder why this isn't a criminal investigation and the office is still open. People are crazy to buy offplan, would only be ok if deposits held in escrow accounts
  14. Anyone changed the oil indicator settings? I've followed the instructions but it doesn't respond
  15. because Kasikorn aren't following the rules most likely. I doubt BoT said it was ok to exclude foreigners, other banks are complying
  16. Problem is it's full of spongers dragging the country down looking for benefits and freebies. People go to food banks who shouldn't be there
  17. yeah I'm sure it tastes good but it's not surprising so many in the US are overweight or obese, talk about fat content and too much food
  18. The only reason it doesn't apply to foreigners is because the system hasn't the functionality yet, that's been confirmed by Kasikorn, other banks such as Krungsri have updated their system for foreigners
  19. because of a lack of functionality, rules will apply to foreigners as well so most likely someone will be blocked from making transfers over the limit unless go to branch
  20. probably because no functionality for foreigners yet so doesn't apply
  21. It seems to be Pita related, vote today maybe they expect it to go through, currencies weakened 1%ish yesterday, more today
  22. Yep probably because not many decent farang out there, not much you can do about that, maybe be ruthless, if you don't like enough just move on quickly
  23. It's about 1200 green fee, caddy fee and tip 800, minivan and bet 600, so about 2600 baht each time, 3 times a week is the norm so I've updated my calc to 31k a month. That's one reason i stopped doing that. Instead i play golf on a 9 hole course twice a week 320 baht, so 800 baht a week incl fuel so 3,200 baht a month, a 10th of the cost if i was playing with the golf bars
  24. Maybe don't date so many at the same time, date one, see if it goes anywhere, if not move to the next and repeat
