Same problem here. 

 

This is the error. 

 

"The contract account number has no outstanding balance."

 

Not true. I have on my hand a 3800 baht bill with due date tomorrow! 

 

What do you suggest? 

 

I have read now last post. Will wait tomorrow. 

 

If tomorrow the problem still occur what do you suggest? 

Did they call the Ghostbusters?

Just changing. I see a lot of chinese and Thai. In the public holiday days I see a lot of Thai. Pattaya is reallly busy even in low season in the public holidays, and alll people arouund are Thai. And just a few farang. People will change, and businesses also. Businesses oriented towards low peofile farang will close. Businesses oriented towards thai people and high profile farang will increase profits.

I've just watched the website and seems like they're working on it. There are many broken links in the website menu at this moment. Try later. I want add regarding this offer that I did subscribed it and I think the connection is a little less responsive than the happy Internet package, but it's OK.

Anyone can report info about Internet connection mobile and most ADSL in this area? Is it available, is it working?

And does it work on tethering? Did you try?

Tethering has nothing to do with the provider (in Thailand). It depends on the phone or tablet you use.

Technically is just a network restriction on the apn and does not directly concern the country. I know in Thai the carriers do not set this restriction but is also true that they can learn from abroad and set it on some plan. Since the discounted price and newest offer we discussing on, if anyone can confirm tethering full functionality I appreciate.

I think some providers are now using the TTL value to check if you're tethering. A quick online search of TTL tethering will pull up lots of info.

A pretty smart way. Interesting.

I have been using DTAC 799bt 12GB double deal for 3 months on my modem router tethered to my computer. It works the same as all the 3g data packages, once you have used the 12gb quota it drops back to 384kbs.

If you have any other packages with DTAC i think you have to cancel those before it lets you choose another package. I did it all online at DTAC e-service.

Lovely!

Thanks a bunch.

...When somebody ask you "how do you get money for live?"

what's the best answer?

...

The truth.

A lot of people in this thread disagree with you, who's right and who's not?

Who the hell cares? Just don't tell anyone what you're doing. Nobody needs to know. Got it?

I have a business that I run too. There's no visa. There's no taxes. That's the beauty of making money online. Nobody knows..

I read all from the begin, very interesting discussion!

When somebody ask you "how do you get money for live?"

what's the best answer?

1- I have a business IN UK regarding investments and finance.

2- I have a lot of money! I don't work!

3- I'm 30 years old and I get a pension...

4- I won the lottery.

5- I live wthout money, I don't need them.

Please vote you're preferred or add yours...

thai driving license is not a proof of address, does not show the address.

However they closed my account already, I have only to wait 6 month for have my money back in some way...

Try looking on the back!

yes you right...

thai driving license is not a proof of address, does not show the address.

However they closed my account already, I have only to wait 6 month for have my money back in some way...

I also found many website of people did sue paypal and won. So Paypal is big yes, but not unvincible

They have no right to keep your money. Sue them. They'll soon give it back.

They told me on the phone that in a period between 30 and 180 days they will notify me the account closing and let me withdrawal my money... I will wait...

They also told me that they encourage to do not use paypal to transfer money from a country to another, even for legal purpose. (Stupid! JUST DISABLE THE FUNCION!)

Anyone reading this post be very carefull to put his money inside paypal and transfer between multiple countries because they can keep money locked up to 180 days.

I suggest Skrill, with skrill I can attach every current account all around the world to the same skrill account (registered as the country of residence) and manage them sending money in and out of multiple country without problem, skrill also is a bank registered in FCA authority and money are covered up to 75k Pounds.

I did search on google, sometimes they ask SSN card scan. What hapen if they ask me SSN thailand card? For me would be impossibile to get one.

I linked this account 2 years ago, if they are honest they would asked me proof before to get my money in their hands.

The statement printed from the cashier does not have my address printed on it, it is not valid as proof of address.

If the FBI ask new documents, as soon as the FBI change policy if paypal is honest would ask me proof of address without wait I put 40.000 baht into... What behavior is?

I think the FBI doesn't forbid paypal to ask proof of residence to people BEFORE to get thousands of money inside the system...

I'm not here for taking on paypal, just to discuss this behavior, maybe someone before to send money to paypal scam will search on google and find this post so he will think 2 times before to send money and let them steal the money and you are unable to get them back because they are too big and "They might sue your ass back to the stone age".

Maybe someone will find this information and stay away from paypal scam.

They locked my a/c also earlier in the year, its was through a Australia Bank a/c which I had already close. After a lot of sending them ids, passport scans and luckily enough I had an old bank statement that they accepted, but it was not easy and toke a few weeks.

My advise is to open a Thai bank ac and get them to print out a statement with your address on it.

Which address is on your PayPal account?

I have already a bank account with kasikorn but I don't have any statement with my address since they do not send it. In paypal there is an address in pattaya where I used to live when I opened the account 2 years ago.

Now the most logical think is that paypal is a big scam, because if the problem is to verify the address they must ask to provide documents BEFORE to receive the money. Not later locking YOUR money forever.

Anyone have never reported this behavior to the authority?

Looks like another PayPal screwing, one of many I know of. Never again with that lot.

I really have no idea how to get my 40.000 back. I did call them and they say they don't care if I live in hotel, if I'm unable to send a bill they will keep my money... They say it is a rule for money laundering.

I think if really they are worried for money laundering they should ask me the documents BEFORE to accept my 40.000 baht, not after...

Now they have my 40.000 in their pocket and I can't do anything for have my money back.

If they would ask me these documents before I never would sent them this money.

I work with paypal from a long time, I never thought it was a scam like this.

Paypal locked my account and ask to me a proof of address in order to unlock my money (there are about 40.000 THB inside).

The problem is that I do not have any bill or something similar because I live in hotel.

Do you think they will accept a residen from the immigration translated in english from me? what do you suggest me to do for unlock my money?

Thanks!

To deal with you is a wastage of time. Have a good day.

 

I did stay in a very confortable room, for 6000 per month in pattaya thai, with air condition and swimming pool as well! And I know of a good rooms with once a week cleaning and internet for 5000 per month in kaho talo. But I'm thinking to go near the country club so I'm looking for something there. Internet adsl for me is important, because I need to upload big files and 3g data traffic is not enough.

However I don't need swimming pool, a thai style is ok, but not a shit room. I pay monthly and renew month after month, I would like to try for 2 3 days before.

 

I don't like long contracts because in the past the room had problems and nobody fixed them.

 

 

Do you want free breakfast also ? 555+

 

 

Avoid to joke me because I'm not here for funny.
