I have a foreign curreny transfers account wth Travelex, I send sterling to them. They hold it until I see the rate I want, then tell them to send, it is then sent direct to my Thaia bank at that agreed rate. I think they allow you up to 60 days to hold money until you agree send rate.

What happens if funds are not sent within that 60 day time frame. A charge obviously ?

i want to send 20k pounds to put into my kasikorn account . the rate now today is only 48.2 to the pound , so i want to send it to a sterling account and wait untill hopefully it rises again to over 50 at least. do i need to be in thailand to open a sterling account in kasikorn to send this transfer ?

what is required to send to a sterling account.

thanks

hi , sorry to hear your problem, this may help ( see pic attatched ) theres a guy in pattaya knocking them out for 1000 baht, apparently these devices are blessed by the local monks on a commision basis. lot of my friends wives have these and swear by them.

WTffffffff !!!

just seen it on facebook, i copied it 2 mins ago and was about to paste it here only you beat me to it. this has to be a joke , surely ? if it is not a joke i will be be seriously re assessing my attitude towards thai,s and their country

just looking at some of the other sections of this website, i think it may be a joke.

"Following an interrogation, Titov admitted that he got the fake cards from Russia."

that line that made me smile

Dummy police, whats new ?

well i bought one in ccr recently, guy gave me a cracking deal on it, was developed by a very good reputable company ( matrix ), due to be completed in november. the russians are now selling up for buttons though mostly in jomtien ( i dont like the place and never have ) on hindsight i wish i had of waited untill 2016 to make the move but its done now, very happy to have bought this one in ccr ( city centre residence ) for the price i got it for its a great location and i do not think i will have a problem if i wanted to rent then flip it after a couple of years.

balo .....wise up <deleted>

Nirun is not as bad as is tainted as is many similar complexes. it central and have many bars/shops within easy distance also big c,and you could easily buy a small condo for under 500 k or a larger unit for about 1kk,please don't knock it if you havent lived there.

Nirun is situated oppposite big c pattaya klang in soi arunothai.

As for handing down property to family it a no no unless they on the deeds,i believe or am led to believe.

I went to nirun recently to view a 37sqm apt. As soon as i stepped into building i realised i couldnt live there. The inside corridors ( i wont call them hallways ) are dark and bleak and and you would think you were in an asylum. You can hear everything inside each condo. Its noisy. Even the outside resembles a prison camp . Its absolutely filthy with many condos hanging dirty washing out over bslconies. I see tramps beggers hanging about i see down on their luck farangs sitting drinking chang at 9am un morning . The swimming pool i seen around 8 years ago was absolutely appalling and discusting and its no different now. Anyone want to prove me wrong then post some pics here. I would not put a dog into that sh**hole. So brit_doggie your talking nonsense.

90 baht bit harsh

get a small dog and a big cat.

hate filled piece of sh*t.

Wow! What a perfect Thai bashers' thread.

Personally,I find most Thai people to be genuine, helpful, and welcoming.

hmmmm really your being genuine ? ok then if so i bet your one of them guys who does the " over the top " wai when greeting them , leaves large tips, rings the bell , pays the family hospital bills, sends the monthly western union, lives in a very remote area of thailand , or possibly a hermit.

how long have you lived in thailand ?

It is apparent that your personality is in conflict with others most of the time. Or you are constantly bad luck. Go to the temple and get blessed. You have some bad vibs. like magnets attracting each other.

bs, its true , nothing to do with this guys personality or character. i also stand by what i say about thai,s , its my honest observation in after years both living and married to them.

Kannot, i agree with you 100%. ive had many similar bad expiriences from thai,s but i dont want to go into it. if im pushed then i will give a lot of instances but there have been too many over the years and i dont have time to explain. overall, i dont like the majority of them and do not trust most of them, i find most of them selfish people. yes off course many many decent thai people and i also have some good friends here who have helped me and shown kindness towards me but not many.

saying that , beware and watch out for a lot of farang sharks, theyll have your life savings off you in a flash.

Thankyou...im wondering next time i arrive in suwamaphumi from uk and want to go straight to samui i shouldnt really have a hard job getting a flight that same day ?

Who needs TV - there is Internet access.

exactly, i just bought an android box in pattaya , took it back to uk and now its working fine ( 7500 baht ) i will buy one of these and put into condo , presuming wifi is half decent off course , if not then renter buys his internet per month himself, i

think thats the way to go .

just looked at sky scanner for flights to samui, seems nok air and airasia both go from don muang airport. are there any low cost services from bkk airport to samui or phuket ?

i seen lots of bill boards advertising airasia flights from samui to bkk for 560 baht ( i dont think so ) anyone any prices on flights or vip buses ?

the same girl is o facebook , i questioned her again this morning about this insult, she said she was very very sorry, she was drunk. she was angry at me. though is this thai insult really as bad as we farangs believe it to be ? or can such a thing be forgiven ?

i mean if someone insulted my children or my dead mother then no no but is this calling someone a lowlife or a lizard etc really so bad, i have in the past insulted people by saying far worse...............so

your thoughts please

" i heea " or something similar like " i hear"

an insult ? i was ignoring a thai girl recently who was doing my head in and getting closer than close and i heard her speak this. i also remember someone told me this is the worst insult, i dont know. so advice .

i could have picked it up wrong but i dont think so as when i questioned her about it she apologised, it was not accepted .

I wouldnt waste my time going through cctv just yet. Tell him hes a liar and tell him to go to hell. Dont be afraid of them. When police are involved then get your cctv evidence .

From bkk to samui what is best way to get there by vip over night bus ? From where and what is price inc ferry ? Also if i do choose to fly its obviously quicker but with which airline is cheapest from bkk suwamaphumi or don muang and what is usual one way fare. Have just got back from samui last week . I was stupid enough to hire car from patttaya so it was expensive on fuel etc and an exhausting drive but we did stop over in hau hin for few nights which was a real pleasure too. Any advice guys most welcome. Im thinking over night vip bus but i want to hear from your expiriences .

Got 25 boxes of amber leaf tobacco at king powers. They would not sell me anymore.

What is being asked here of fellow TV members is advice on how to break the law. Smuggling is illegal in most countries, plain and simple. No sympathy when you get fined again.

I love it 555
