IMHO. maintenance and service of any vehicle is more important than the KM. I know a guy who bought a car and drove it for 100,000 km with 0 maintenance just refill oil when oil pressure warning lamp started to blink. He topped up coolant also occasionally. Another friend bought a second hand car where the service book was missing. He took it to a self service garage and wanted to change oil. When he took away the oil plug the oil come out was more like tar than oil. Probably also never serviced.

I’m not sure why anyone should answer these questions in a public forum. It’s give Google and Metas crawlers free private information. I could tell you if we meet over a beer someday and if you wanna know. But on the other hand I will not. You might put my life story in this forum as well. Also not nice to tell your friends story. He might have told you privately because he wanted to ventilate a bit. Hope he is not suicidal and figure out his story is for everyone to read.

Why do they put the bikes registration plates in the article? It does not ad anything to the story other than relatives might read it and get the tragic news from a web site. Apparently it was not the cars fault also. From Thaigers website: So I believe the bikes crashed head to head beside the car.

Elevators usually has a backup source of electricity. Should never stop in-between two stories if there is a power out.

I guess small accidents like this happen all the time. A friend of mine lost his toe when he was a kid. He was pushing his rubber shoe forward towards next step when going up to the top of the escalator. If it wasn't for the girl that lost her leg I believe this would never have reached the news.

Police must have put it on him because when he was hand cuffed he did not have a mask. Probably not to risk getting from him.

I think you can register with revenue department to get it payed out by Prompt pay. Last years I had to pay a little extra so no need for return.

Yes, Apparently the only time you have to visit the issuing branch is when changing ID number like when you get a new passport, or if you change name/surname, everything else branch offices can do for you.

I have no idea why on earth I would complain? Have I ever complained that you get a service that apparently no one else gets? I'm happy for you but not so sure you get the same service next time you need to update your bank records with your new passport. And on an interesting coincidence note that was exactly the BBL branch I went to I was staying at Lumpini ville 77.

From Bangkok Bank home page. I wonder how they changed yours.

I first went to to closest branch where I live, they told me I had to go to the branch I opened the account, so I want to the branch in Ari because I thought I opened the my account there, They told me again, I had to go to the branch were I opened my account and they told me i have to go to Central Ladprao. Very strange if two offices tell me wrongly.

I also had to go to where I opened my BBL account 14 years ago to change Passport number. I also have to wait a week to update so I could update my account with face picture, but that can be done at any branch.

Actually the Security guards tried to protect him form the other foreigners attacking him according to the update.

Having Ice in my drinks almost every day at different locations, never had a problem. I even drink tap water every now and then. Last Monday we visited a 5 star hotel in Bangkok, all 4 of us eaten there got bad stomach a few hours afterwards, and the food buffé had a price of 2,500 excluding any drinks except water. I don't think it was the ice in the water that made our stomachs bad.

I saw this in the news (Thairat channel32) in the morning and they showed both video from the surveillance camera on 4th floor and even when she landed on ground floor (blurred out of cause). She did not fall, she jumped. Crawled over the railing and didn't even try to hold on to it. 100% her own fault. RIP anyway,

I would say every CDM, Cash Deposit Machine can be used as ATM, I do use them regularly both to deposit and redraw. Good thing is that many times if there is a cue line to the ATM's there is no one queue to the CDM so I redraw there instead. Seams like most people has no idea they can be used as ATM. Only bad thing with the CDM is if you want to deposit to another bank or same bank in another district there is a rather hefty fee. Like 50 baht or so. Quite a lot depending on the amount you deposit.

Elite VISA would be your best option, I know a few digital nomads working from Thailand on Elite VISA, and if there is any questions the Elite VISA staff will help you sort questions out. Important is not do any work that has anything with Thailand to do, For example can not work as a Digital nomad for a European country and create a website or application for any one or anything in Thailand. Elite VISA also comes with many extra benefits, like they handle 90 days report for you unless you wanna do your self over internet, you get a electric car that drive you to and back from the Gate, you go through immigration in the VIP line, same a ambassadors and 1st class/Business class travelers. Limousine to and back from the Airport, access to golf courses etc.. I suggest you contact them and be open with your plans to work as a Digital nomad, They will help. They can even find you a office to use if you don't want to work from home all the time. The bad side with the Elite VISA is that is does not count if you want to apply for a Permanent Residency in the future, If so you must have 3+ years of unbroken Extension of Stay witch you never get on Elite VISA. In the first sentence you state "Thai Girlfriend" and if you are not married you can not get a O-VISA based or Marriage. Your option nr3 might be possible by opening a satellite office in Thailand but I think that is rather complicated.

I have seen a a few CDM:s at gas stations.

Must have been a CDM, not ATM, they handle up to 100,000 in one go, just a bit stupid of him not to verify that the deposit had gone through properly before leaving. He was very lucky a honest man found them. On the other hand if he had the camera inside the CDM might have made him easy to find. In a CDM, it is the same tray (dispenser) that you deposit money and retrieve money if you redraw.

That is true, But its also true that you can get a Tourist VISA that give you much longer stay but that comes with a cost that they will earn.

Interesting it took them 7 years to figure out he has no money? Or maybe he has, I believe some rich people is the biggest Cheap Charlies you can ever meet.

Last 3 times the driver has been waiting inside their car and go out when they see you approaching it. And I pick the ticket from the ticketing machine by my self. At least at Suvarnabhumi, was so many years ago I flew to DMK so I do not remember.

Yes I know, I that is why I clearly stated Suvarnabhumi, can be a tip for someone that try to pick taxi on none official taxi stand. IMHO they should to something similar at Don Mueang.

A truck has breaks on all wheels and can stop very easy and quick, Accelerate especial from standing still with a heavy loaded truck can be a problem uphill. It just have a few tires with driving force. When a truck stop uphill, the weight goes towards the back tires of the tailer, making the tires that can accelerate have less weight and with that less grip. Not much is needed and the driving tires looses the grip and just start to spin with you going nowhere except maybe backwards. This is what young people doing burn outs with their cars, just have a few friends pushing on the front of the car and as soon as the tires start to spin the car goes nowhere. If the trucks were all wheel drive I would agree with you. But unfortunate they are not.
