I bought a budget Lenovo for my wife on lazada a couple of years ago, never been a problem. There is nothing wrong with 2nd hand if you are aware and prepared to accept it is not new. I am just in the process of changing my 13 year old HP that I bought on Ebay for about £200 nearly 6 years ago. Just bought a 2 year old unused Lenovo Thinkpad at a fairly good price. If you are looking to new I would suggest the Lenovo website, they offer fairly good discounts and the product is as good as you get.

There is some lack of clarity when the question of Wise accounts comes up. You can have a Wise account in many jurisdictions but the services available from that account can vary. I think that with a verified UK account every service they offer is available but the same cannot be said for a Thai account.

Back in 2007 the doctor in the UK diagnosed me as a high risk stroke victim, aged 60 I was about 75kg and non diabetic. He tried to put me on warfarin but I refused, my late brother was losing the will to live from warfarin. About 8 years ago the Thai doctor put up a convincing argument for apixaban. When I came to live here in 2008 insurance was a non starter. I have lived here for the last 17 years knowing full well that any serious issue could be lights out, and still do.

You mean the definition of differences in a translation. Only the arrogant would take that as literal.

Only the narrowminded would look at the EU in isolation. Back on the so called "Liberation" day Trump declared every country in the world would be queuing up to make a deal. Market chaos followed and he had to back off, very few deals have been made. Only time will tell who the main beneficiaries turned out to be and who has suffered in the crossfire. Nothing in the whole fiasco can be said to be a "Triumph" for Trump.

Why do foreigners always want to use the literal when trying to prove a point. Visa status comes to an end when leaving the country, a fairly common convention. The re-entry permit is a pseudo visa rather than forcing people to obtain another proper visa. In the days of the TM6 and now the online version, the re-entry permit number would be used where a visa number is required. It shouldn't be forgotten that English is not the first language of the Immigration Dept.

Spot on Bill. Trump is delusional to think that product from abroad can be made competitively in house. It was pointed out many years ago by the CEO of Apple that western nations generally do not have the mindset for repetive work resulting in a higher labour cost. One way or another US consumers will pay more.

Exactly. If the EU can sort out the differences with China that deal would bring about a whole new perspective. The history books will show Trump tarriffs to be one of the greatest obstacles to global unity.

I am assuming that if you switch it off overnight it just starts normally in the morning. That being the case it is worth checking the data control. Click on the wifi symbol and you should see the network you are connected to. Click on properties and it should go into settings. Scroll down a bit and there will be a button for metered connection, that should show "Off". It is only required for limited data availability and if inadvertently switched on could be cutting the connection when set level reached.

All about you, isn't it. The fact that others may not want Office 365 is not getting through to you. Why on earth would you think anyone would thank you for suggesting they buy something they don't need.

Indeed. You need to learn that every foreigner in the country has visa status and that "visa " is a perfectly acceptable shortened version. I was quite obvious that 365 days of visa status remaining is what was meant in the post you quoted. The fact that others want to put their own interpretation is irrelevant, what will be will be.

Indeed. I was well aware of the flak that would come about, but at the risk of one positive response I went ahead anyway. As I said in the beginning, we all take chances in life.

"365 days left on your visa" seems fairly clear to me.

With absolutly no idea of the personal circumstances you should refrain from making uninformed derogatory comments. Those on the high moral ground seem to forget that the UK population should be grateful to those that are treated abroad, frees up funds and resources for someone else. Medical expenses to date have topped 30K GBP, cost to the nhs would 3-4 times that. On day when you are older you may come to understand the issues that can arise, or maybe not.

Why buy something you don't need just to get storage. What suits you may not apply to others, there is an old saying about cats.
