I use Skype for calling the bank in Canada. It works very well and you can use their 800 number.

I do the same for all free phone numbers in NZ. Ours are 0800 numbers. I have a subscription that allows me to call all landlines for about $10 per month and I'm always using it to call banks, insurance companies, anybody that has an 0800 number, as well as family of course.

Sometimes Telecom in NZ rejects the call - I suspect that are able to detect Skype calls somehow. But I just redial and after a few attempts it invariably goes through.

update

i got 1 800 and 1 888 number to work via skype without credits

1 866 worked initially then later said i have no skype credits.... not sure why as i never purchased credits..

thanks

hopefully this helps someone too

use 1 800 or 1 888 numbers via skype

ugh

need skype credits to call a number

no yellow phones in this town,no big shopping centers, ive seen them else where in thailand ( the phones i mean )

im going to try and get them to call me

can i call operator from cell

how do i do that ?

I know it's a pain

But to top it off do I need a land line ?

Thanxs

I have a non o marriage visa..

.but need to visit immigration every 3 months to check in ?

sorry im sure this is in the forum probably multiple times but I'm in the middle of all the emotions tied to a breakup, plus the insecurities of not being able to stay here.

my wife wants to breakup and she is saying she wants to go with me to get divorce?

i only got the non 0 visa in january

how does this affect my next immigration office visit that i have to go to every 3 months

should i go with her and get divorce or just let her do it? does it cost money?

i dont want to leave thailand

not sure what my options are, any advice is much appreciated

thank you

I'm in khanom and seen a few regular jellyfish while walking along the beach... I haven't swam since which is ugh . Problem here is I'm basically the only one in the water even when it's not jellyfish season so I'm the one to discover anything dangerous... Anyhow I love to swim and was wonder where to buy stinger suits , any links .

Thank you ?

Hi im in khanom, so figured id àsk here as its close

what is the jellyfish news, ive seen normal jellyfish but just learned about the worse box and irukandji

i love to swim twice a day but now im afraid

i like to swim horizontal to shorline for exercise so have a good chance of meeting on face to face ?

Any idea when and if jellyfish season is over

what precautions i can take

how dangerous is it

thanks for any advice

I read jellyfish r multiplying like never before in history

Thank you :)

So don't do in Bangkok ? Go to Nakhon Si Thamarat which where immigration office is located for khanom ?

Thank you once again ubonjoe :)

Got married today and registered :)

Staying in Bangkok an extra night to ensure everything is done right concerning visa.
I'm going to do the 60 day extension as I'm not prepared non o visa wise

My question and hopefully my last for awhile :P is should I just go to Canadian embassy in Bangkok as I know where it is etc, or do I have to go to a seperate immigration office ? Or both ?

Thank you :)

Should I be concerned my wife's house registry book still says Lamphun ?
She never bothered to change it as that's where her family lives; we already went there this week for guarantee < not sure if spelt right but proof she is single

thank you ubonjoe :)

 

what is wifes house book registry ?

 

entry/permitted to stay stamp im assuming is is in visa book ?

 

TM6 departure card ?  

 

sorry this is all new to me

 

ok so tomorrow get married and registered in Bangkok at any district office, then head back towards Khanom and stop at local immigration office for 60 day extension ? then open bank account as soon as possible< i can only transfer so much per week as my Canadian bank account has safety limits so will take 3 weeks 

 

should i have the marriage cert translated to english, it says it may then be notarized at either the Thai ministry of foreign affairs or at Canadian Embassy < i just want to get back home to Khanom lol

 

 

 

ok I'm in Bangkok and will have all documents  certified tomorrow morning :)

next step is marriage which can do tomorrow too & have registered :)

so then my visa still runs out on friday and the next steps i have to do im confused about

 

do I have to fly to another country for Non O visa and if so where would be easiest and cheapest ?

do I have to return to Bangkok embassy or can i fly closer to where I live which is Khanom ( near Ko Samui ) and go to a local immigration office etc ?

I have not had money in thai bank account yet as banks in Khanom were a pain

 

im i better off getting a 60 day extension to visit new wife till i get everything in order for non o visa ?

 

thank you
