Question to the OP... interested to hear how it all went?

Thank you - all went very smoothly and also the follow up visit 3 months later.

Good.  You actually have a debit card?

Debit and credit card with Bangkok Bank

Thanks all.

I went to my bank yesterday and explained the situation. They have increased my daily/transaction limit and as I am there several days I can make large enough daily payments to cover the cost.

I am shortly going into hospital in Bangkok for surgery. The estimated cost is about 500,000 baht.

I would like to use my Bangkok Bank credit card to make the payment.

I will have the necessary money in my credit card account but wonder if I am likely to have any problem trying to process such a large amount.

Many years ago I filled my suitcase with copy shirts from there and took them back with me on a visit to the UK. Sold them on Ebay and made enough profit to cover my return airfare.

The problem I sometimes have is with people speaking. Other sounds like music are fine.

I am planning to buy a new 55" TV. In addition to obviously having a high definition clear picture I am particularly interested in one with high quality sound due to my deteriorating hearing. I don't really need a smart TV as I will have my laptop linked to it.

Any recommendations.

I used to be a director of a company that owned a house in a village and was a member of the management committee there. I subsequently sold it and purchased another house in the same village but in my Thai girlfriends name. I was advised that I could no longer be on the committee unless we married and would then in effect be the husband of a house owner.

Does anyone know if this is Thai law or just the rules from our village.

Does anyone use PAYPAL Thailand and is it linked to a Thai Bank account

I have with Bangkok Bank an immediate access sterling account which allows me to transfer funds to my Thai baht account in seconds online. I also have a fixed term Sterling account which gives me 0.9% interest.

does anybody know where good pies can be bought in pattaya/jomtien????

 

tinnies at jomtien, are definitely very nice, all varieties--- but at 150 baht each---ridiculously expensive..

nz is expensive, but i can still buy a pie for less than half cost of tinnies...

aussie owner-- i cant see he he can justify the cost--- surely there most be decent pies available at a more realistic price ????

......but obviously more precise info on the location of this "Bangkok Pattaya Clinic" is needed. It is not Bangkok Pattaya Hospital I suppose, but there are locations with a similar name in Jomtien etc. etc. Where exactly is the real thing ? Thanks.

Bangkok Pattaya Clinic is on Sukhumvit across from Big C in South Pattaya. I had my flu jab done there earlier this year. Quick and not expensive.

It would help if you showed the email address the message was sent from. You can usually tell from that.

If you get any mail like this do the following:

Close the mail.

Go to i.e. Microsoft.com and logon to your account.

If you logon to your account there will be a message if there is anything to do. If not, then there is nothing to do.

Do never ever click on any link in the original mail and don't use contact numbers or email addresses or web links from that mail.

 

I've also changed my password after they sent me a code via my mobile

Sportsala works well and it's free.

Thanks. Good picture but I can't seem to get any sound even when I try UNMUTE

That depends whether you want to pay for it or not.

 

You don't necessarily need to use a VPN.

If the offerings are equally good, why would I want to pay. If I need a VPN for the free version and pay without using VPN and I already have the use of 2 good VPN services, which would you recommend.

Anyone know how I can stream the live cricket today using a VPN

Well, I have my 90 days and proof of 800K coming up with different dates of course.

The wife called the IO Office in Mukdahan to ask if we could do them both this Friday.

No problem, just bring a copy of the updated bank book AND a letter from the bank

confirming the amount... Guess I need that bank letter every 3 months.

 

I didn't need a letter at Jomtien and they are one of the toughest IO
