I used to see a foreigner working in the meat/butcher section. 

 

That was Big C Patraya Tai

Philippine Airlines into Manila best by far

So the bali hat pier area is going to be absolutely rammed yes?

You will see the fireworks anywhere round Pattaya beach. Personally I avoid the centre like the plague. The beach area and the city in general will be rammed. Take care of your kids if you go.

What is it with this moral bull manure.

It probably depends on your suitcase. I tried that with a Samsonite without success, first of all you need some special tools and in my case even with those I was unable to remove the original wheels. That would require a workbench and additional equipment.

I seem to remember my wife used a hacksaw. They are so cheap to buy, it's worth having a try.

Just go onto Lazada and order your wheels. It's so easy to order and to replace. My wife did ours. I can assure you that if she can do it, anyone can.

Everyone is missing the point of this topic. It's not an insurance company that will not pay out its the

 "Thai government does provide coverage under the Health Insurance for Non-Thais (HINT) scheme".

I have no idea what this is, anyone?

Deleted, thought better of it

Depending on which Big C Extra there is a chance to blame the French; it was Carrefour which brought Big C into the 21st century - the building though was not constructed by French but by Somchai. Architecture and execution is a Thai-only trade (see Alien Business Law) 😉 

There is only 1 Big C Extra and that's Pattaya Klang. The other one is Big C Supercentre.

The Disco Club (LK Metro), strangely up for rent rather than for sale. 

No one actually "buys" a bar over here, they are all rented out for a period of time. Short term leases or renting are basically the same, the owner holds the freehold.

He is totally irrelevant.

I Only use COD and I get free shipping on almost every order Lazada or Shopee....On rare occasions you will have to change sellers to get the free shipping...

You are showing that you don't know how Lazada works to get the best deal. Before purchasing always go to the voucher centre and collect the free shipping and discount vouchers. Also check the store to see of they have an additional voucher. It can save you hundreds. Payment method is irrelevant to getting free shipping.

Just try using a credit/debit card in any shop in Thailand.  "No like, No want"  is the usual response, followed by over-charging to cover the car company's fee.  

Thailand is a "cash only"  economy.  It suits the numerous criminals who live here, and supports tax evasion.

Nonsense. I use my UK no fee credit cards in Big C, Lotus's, pay for petrol, use them on Lazada, pay for food on Grab.

I'm on Non O, since I obtained it via visa exemption I guess? 

 

Sorry for my ignorance, but my wife fix everything, I just sign the papers 🧐

 

She was going to call on Monday, but I found good priced tickets this morning. 

 

 

Suggest you ask her then. Your post isn't very clear. It's confused.

The thickness seems considerably more on the higher priced one. More material, more cost.

And it's a larger size

Stop worrying. Even if there was a fire I doubt if it would cause permanent damage. Don't forget the construction of houses over here, any damage can be easily repaired the contents replaced.

What agents, Everyone I know about is around 35k for the initial 3month non imm O + 12 retirement. yearly renewals are then in the 12-15k range. 

I can't see anywhere in the thread that says if he has a Non O already. Pattaya prices vary across the board but the cheapest is 12.5k to 13k for an existing Non O. If OP needs a Non O and a retirement extension is about 23k not the 35k quoted.

Agents you mentioned in trendy building would be last place I would recommend and nothing like 35k for an agent in places such as Pattaya 

You should know that many agents in Pattaya are nowhere near 35k. Many are 12500 to 13,000

I dont doubt such scams exist, but do people really leave 750K sitting in a bank account?

Most people have most of their money in investments that cannot be touched.

So dont believe this story. 

 

I bet you havnt even bothered to read the full article before your rather stupid comment. Typical aseannow poster.

Please say this to all the other members who replied to my 65k question, thanks.

Just proves my point. You have deselected attention from the OP's question by ignorantly piggy backing on his thread. I repeat start your own.

If you want to use the 65k per month method, when exactly should that start please?

Start your own thread. Piggy backing on someone's thread dilutes their issue.
