Will update periodically as I find out more information about the companies mentioned in this thread.

!Swan Drinking Water Company

0890537888 - have at least 1 employee who speaks reasonable English.  This is also their Line id.

200b non-refundable fee for each 19 liter tank ordered and they will not buy it back when you quit their service.  

each tank delivered is 40b

In my experience the institutions that I applied to provided a list of acceptable KYC documents as well as instructions for translation, if needed e.g. the translation service needed to include certain information on the translated document.

I ended using a translated copy of my TMN wifi bill.

Bit early for Pattaya, 7-9 am.  TBH i associate Pattaya with a different kind of drip…

Good to see a positive, uplifting story in these troubled times.  I would only ask for a few more photos the next time a story like this runs, solely for the sake of uplifting our collective spirit.

I am staying put in Thailand until these requirements are abolished worldwide. 

Enjoy your lifelong stay in Thailand ????

There it is again, that "we all know/have heard" b0llocks.   "We all" have not heard that from anywhere credible apart from hackneyed Thaivisa members hearsay.   Unless you've got something that proves that poor maintenance is "ripe" [sic] ( do you mean "rife") here, of course?

Obviously he didn’t literally mean every single person on earth - but you enjoy taking the <deleted>, clearly.

Thought this was decent - not great, but interesting and a bit different.  Worth a watch on a slow night, if you will.

I order from Central Eatery via Grab quite often and particularly when their is a “flash deal” discount (generally 120b discount off a required 350b).  I am not a foodie per se but have always been happy with quality and quantity.

You also need to check if the "deposit" for the 18/20 litre bottles is refunded, or not, when you cancel the service (my current company is a non-refunded B200 per bottle).

 

Getting a regular delivery to my South Pattaya room has been a battle for years for me ... tainted water (an obivious greenish tinge), failed deliveries (needing 3 or 4 follow-up calls per delivery).

Good call, a non-refundable deposit is ridiculous.  Delivery issues are exactly why I am looking for a new company - I had been using CH Tech but half the time they just wouldn’t show up.

Stopped buying the big expensive bottles that they deliver a few years back, we had several bottles over several weeks that smelled and tasted of petrol.  When we checked the bottling plant where they filled them up they were not cleaning them out properly and simply re filling them up with new water.

 

Now we only buy the big bottles from Makro four of those can last a week and they deliver as well 

Do you recall the name of the company that you stopped using?  
 

Hadn’t considered Makro, not a bad idea.

Crack reporting by the Pattaya News - rest assured, if a bike tips over they will surely be first in the scene and make it a headline story.  

Thanks for all of the recommendations ????

NZ was 10th

There's a shop on Soi 15 next to a small laundry kiosk and a few steps from Centara Avenue that delivers all kinds of beverages - including water.

Thanks, but they only sell packets of individual plastic water bottles, not the pre-filled tanks I am looking for.

I get water delivered but they operate mainly on the Darkside, what's your area?

Central,  near Avenue mall.  If you have contact info, I will get in touch to see if they will deliver here.

Looking for recommendations for a company to deliver drinking water (blue tanks) to my condo - any thoughts appreciated.

Enjoy the Phils, Angeles can be nice, Davao is also good as well as Cebu.  Manila not so much. Just my view from having lived there when I decided to take a break from Thailand after my divorce, but after getting mugged twice, well that was it and I moved back and bought my condo here in Silom.

Where did the muggings take place - I would guess Manila?

Hoping to get to Angeles City 9 days of it in Pattaya (12-20) is a big hassle burn out.

Good idea but the hurdles coming back are still a PITA

Only a casual observer but it seems to me there has been more movement (for lack of a better word) on the Rohingya traffickers since BJ was appointed to this role than in all the years before.  Something to be said for that.

What's the point of this post? Distraction?

Isn't it enough to concentrate on Putin the way he is?

I mean, we are in the Pub - fun and entertainment, right?
