  1. Don't know why not. Their initial reason for not allowing joint accounts was that if you had B800000 only half of it was yours as it was a joint account. That's what they told me ages ago.
  2. Yes, when I questioned my bank they said new requirements from new government policy. They also said that my wife and I would not be able to transfer significant amounts between our accounts, so I tried it and we can, maybe releasing baht is the same, ie it is a new reg. but maybe not inforced.
  3. Hope you get an answer as that would be great. Another solution would be to have B1.6mil in joint account with the best bank rate in a yearly term deposit.
  4. Garbage. Check out the number of International schools in Thailand. Many in Pattaya. People who send their kids there are fairly well off.
  5. I've driven it and love it. Inside space wise is as big as my Honda CRV, that swept look is deceiving.
  6. Nice choice. 🙂
  7. Not exactly the same, but we (my Thai wife and this Farang) have been married for 34 years and had a house and land in Pattaya City (in her name of course) and recently sold it. My wife and I were at the land office with the buyers representative as the land deeds were signed over. No problem. No one cared about this Farang with a big grin on his face. 🙂 AND for those small minded people she wasn't a bar girl and I worked in Chonburi and am not bald and fat and don't wear shorts, socks and shoes.
  8. I have 3 different brand boxes. Sometime I have to do a hard reset, not after on one of them. When strange things start to happen and removing the power etc doesn't fix the problem, could be time for a hard reset. Bit of a pain cause you have to reinstall Kodi mods and other added apps.
  9. We are coming from a Honda CRV. so we wanted something with that size inside, but with more Ommmfff than the rear wheel drive 2.0L CRV. Got no real acceleration power for passing. So the AWD Selion 7 is about the same inside size as the CRV but has that extra Grunt if needed when passing. That's why we went for the Sealion 7. Also they wanted B 1.7 for the new ICE CRV.
  10. I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 301 seconds  
  11. I've got a diesel genset. If the lightning gets bad I turn off the main breaker and use it. Only ever happened once.
  12. I'm sure that's the best thing to do, but what happens when you're not there? Probably replace the supply MOVs regularly even though they still show green. Or do what Crossy did and place small MOVs on power switches to soak up any spike the supply MOVs missed. Attenuate the lightning spike. That's just my feeling, no technical definition to do this.
  13. I wish everything was that simple. A clean bum makes the prostrate massager happy. 🙂
  14. I have had a little dealing with Bagwain and I think he knows what he's talking about. Also builds pools I think. I live in NE Isaan near Lao so my option was to build my own. I did pay a pool builder from Phuket to advise me by remote control and sourced the pool plans from a company in Limasol Syprus.
  15. Respectfully I think it's difficult to circuit analyse what a lightning strike will do or where it will travel. I used to work at a TV transmitter on top of a large mountain and we used to get struck regularly many times. If you walked out of the main building your hair would stand up and the air was noisy, Ssssshhhhh, like just about to break down. Most times the strikes would do no damage, then others would damage a piece of equipment, but not the same TX or RX (we had multiple microwave links, base stations and TV transmitters). I was once working on a link when bits of resistors went shooting past my face after a loud strike and bang. Frightened me fartless. Engineers tried to rig up a circuit to count the strikes and it always got to 1 and disintergrated. Lightning strikes do funny things and are unpredictable. Lightning struck near our house a couple of years ago and took out 6 LED fluoro type lights in part of the garage but not the other 4 LEDs.
