  1. I don't understand all this talk about grease and ball bearings. Things wear out eventually. Surely the key problem with the new monorails is that there are no safety barriers in place anywhere along the monorail lines. Items can fall off anytime, and they will again, with vehicles and pedestrians below always in the direct line of fire until something is done about it.
  2. Just get any new one in your budget. For a Windows PC, if thats what you want, 8GB (16GB better) RAM and 500GB SSD should do. Go for Win11 - don't need older os.
  3. Its just user error. I'd stick with CCleaner, Glary even more troublesome.
  4. It would be a 2km walk. There are motorcy taxis near stairs of Pink Line GC station to the Imm front door for 20THB. Not sure about getting back to Pink Line tho?
  5. What did the neurologist recommend? If nothing I would go get a second opinion.
  6. Like someone else said cash is not always accepted now. As for Wise debit card wouldn't you need a foreign phone number to get that as Thai SIMs don't work, so that is an added fee on top.
  7. Because just like other Thai crypto exchanges they will just kick you out in time to come (I have been with Bx and then Bitkub since 2016). Voted with my feet and only trade overseas now.
  8. Look at the subject title for starters.
  9. Thanks for that. Yes, Lazada does say to wait for next billing cycle so I will do that. Until your reply I was uncertain as the daily activity of my card shows nothing like you say. Hopefully it works out and I can continue to use their service.
  10. I bought a prepaid item online late November and paid for it with a Thai bank credit card. The Lazada vendor then immediately cancelled the order within 5 minutes as they decided they had no stock after my order. Q. Lazada now says the refund was processed to my card a day later and if I don't see the refund on my account I need to call my bank. Has anyone experienced this? Is calling the bank futile? Surely its up to Lazada to ensure I get refunded? Its only a small amount so I have not wasted time with my bank or Lazada following up so far except I can see online my refund is not on my credit card. I will follow up though when I get time to see if I am ever going to use Lazada again?
  11. Just Google it, you will soon see the surname from Khaosod news site.
  12. I've bought a few online thought no as expensive. Its 7% on any declared price of the product inc shipping costs. I have used Fedex easiest arrived on my door 5 days later - just pay them the 7%, if you use UPS for a first time it requires registering your passport ID at BKK airport before they release it. If you have to return it, maybe DOA, then there are several documents to complete at Thai courier to re-import radio parts of the laptop back to USA - I had to do this once and got a replacement sent.
  13. Last time I looked international account openings at SCWB were starting at 25000 USD. Other brokers like IBKR no minimum but will need a few thousand at least to get going.
  14. Pretty unbelievable I would think - assuming you didn't buy second hand to start with. Most EV's lose 10-15% year one alone and another 10% by end of year two.
  15. You have to ask? What if everyone who just got off the flight from Moscow pitches their tent on that beach. What about safety, sanitation and other peoples access to the beach?
  16. My wife goes fishing quite often, but its a euphemism for something she likes between the sheets.
  17. The app says its service is not available in Thailand. What options are there for NFC payments with Thai banks?
  18. I have a room I use one day a month with a fan and the MEA bill is 40THB for one day. Rest of month I disconnect the electric. Are MEA bills not the same as PEA bills, 160THB seems impossible to me?
  19. But with all this nonsense and tit for tat about dates why hasn't anyone mentioned the OP never had a digital credit card to start as Wise doesn't have credit cards, just debit cards in select countries.
